The D mint is clear, but if you look at coin at right angle, you can see what looks like an S mintmark next to the D.

ditto

Is it raised at all or just a random occurrence of shadows and wear?

A die scratch, die gouge, or a pattern of plating bubbles on a harshly cleaned coin.

I submitted another picture (DSCF0053) for your examination. I marked over the D area with a black magic marker and then cleaned it with a wet sponge and this was the result. It looks like an S mintmark right up next to the D mintmark, but it may just be "a pattern of plating bubbles". You decide.
