I found this coin metal detecting barley an inch in the ground at this old site. The coin's bent :( I think there's a leaf stamped on her cheek, you can even see the veins in it. Also there's other pics you can see the "H" mint mark and a possible star or something above the word one. On both sides around the tentacles on the inner side you can see these tinny triangular marks. What are they? One is in front of her chin underneath the letter "I" and the other one is behind her bow obverse. On the reverse side it's located by the letter "T". Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

It looks like a 1891 LD LL obverse 3 in rough shape not much of a premium

Thanks for the bit of info. It's hard to tell the differences between all the slight differences.

If you look at the ball of the 9 the small dated 9 has a rounded top ball and the large date has a flat top ball on the 9, and the large leaf the leaves touch the inner beads and the small leaf is farther away from the inner beads.
I hope this helped once you see the two of them together you'll know what to look for.

If that's a mint mark in the 4th picture shouldn't it be on the outer side of the leaves barely touching the outer rim of the coin?

The year 1891 has no mint marks, things to look for are small and large dates small and large leaves and the combination of each making 6 different date and leaf combinations in obverse 2 + 3 plus the 1891 SL SD obverse 3 variety with the re-punched T Gratia. These are the main ones to search for.
