Ran across a listing on ebay for a 1943-P War Nickel. Seller mentions that the reverse has what he believes to be a "planchet issue" and is not believed to be PMD. After looking through error.ref I was thinking it could be a partial blowhole or fissue? Some type of tensile stress leaving the indentation. Also, it kind of appears to have a part of the "E" within the indentation as well, but that could just be conicnidence from angle or lighting. Pictures are from the listing.

It could also be some sort of a Struck Through.

The seller is listing it as a 1943/2. I did leave that detail out as I didn't think it mattered regarding the reverse issue, but maybe that would help knowing that? Here is a closeup image of the date from the listing.

The weight should be slightly less than normal if it is a lamination issue.
On a struck through the weight will be normal. (I feel it will be normal weight)
