Perhaps it took a hit? The 8 appears misshapen on the bottom.

@Marve65 called it.
I don't think it is a Greaser either, it looks like a scraping contact mark in that area pushing the metal in the digits out of place.

Keith,.... remember the designer for the obverse of the 36 thru 38 Roosevelt dimes was Una Dogga Katcker so the initials under the bust would be UDK..........

And just in case some people still believe it, the designer was not Joseph Stalin.
