1) this probably belongs in the modern US coin section, not classic
2) need clearer pics
3) most likely PMD (post mint damage) or possible counterstamp. no premium either way, value: 25 cents

Remember .... it's the middle of the night in the USA right now. Most folks are asleep.

Agree that your photo is 'kinda blurry' .... but IMHO the triangle was added to the coin after it left the mint.

hard to say with the blurry pictures but it could be a struck through error.
is the triangle raise or indented? what about the reverse side of the coin opposite of the triangle?

If the dent has a corresponding bulge on the other side - it is damage. Otherwise it could be a minor case of a struck through obstruction.
