Can barley see it but looks like a die chip. Better pics are needed.

That is a die chip. The dies were way over used on the wheat cents in the 50's.

Here is a die that is a RPM that has the same die chip. (not saying it is from that same die as the image is pretty bad)

I think the OP's coin has a mint mark too far away for the RPM, so it's a different die with a chip in the same spot. His chip is larger, too, but you could expect them to grow sometimes.

It is an error coin. I would consider it a keeper. You never know what's gonna pop out of the next roll.
