I Was coin roll hunting a bank box of pennies and found this error when magnifying. I checked this at every angle and against other 1985 D pennies. This is original and I can't find any other example of it online. I think I found a unique coin here.
@jay, could be a small die chip on the top of the letter T (and if so then there should be a bunch of them out there) or else it might be a tiny hole in the copper plating letting a small area of the underlying zinc core start to deteriorate (in which case you might have the only one, but it isn't an error).

You guys are great thank you so much for the replies. I've been collecting for years but I do not have the experience and identifying or labeling the types of abnormalities I find on coins. Thank you again.
