First off let me say, I know there are no RPMs after 1989. I was looking thought some cents when I ran across this one. It really resembles a secondary, maybe even a third D. I'm sure it would fool beginners looking for re-punched mint marks. It is a rot spot that just looks like another mint mark, there is no other doubling on the coin, and it is a Wide AM.

You are correct. It started off with a split in the plating in 1992, now it a pot hole of zinc rot.

It is a Wide AM? Nice!  Zinc rot!  I would sell it before zinc rot sets in. Or keep it until the coin is nothing.

I have found many doubled dies, re-punched mint marks and other varieties and errors, but for some reason I haven't found any of the Wide AM 98's, 99's or 2000's. Haven't ran across a 1992 Close AM either, but I'm still looking!

What I was thinking of was Grease Mould Doubling. Not sure this could apply to this coin as there is no obvious Greaser action going on.

When you don't need the needle the haystack will do just fine!
