So that S right next to the D is nothing?

I don't see an S there at all. I think you've just got corrosion.

In 1980 San Francisco was only minting proofs. It seems extremely unlikely that the S puncheon would have gotten used on a business-strike die.

1980D-1OM-001 was delisted because an earlier die state coin showed that the curve on the coins is die damage - not a mintmark punch.

The coin shown in this thread is not from the same die.

Additionally, all I see is a normal, damaged coin. I would have to see more to make any sort of realistic determination as to what the coin is.

How could I set this up because it is very odd for there to be an S right nex t to that D making it looking like SD and not an S over the D.

I'm not sure what you mean by "set this up" so I don't understand the question. If you're in a way asking what I meant by "see more" - it means I would have to see the coin in person to tell you anything more about it. No amount of photography is going to help this one unless it's truly high quality and under a microscope.
