It's definitely interesting. Unfortunately, I can't confirm or deny anything about it.

Hmm.. It definitley looks like that could be a dropped M but I too cannot confirm or deny. Gonna have to wait for the forum sages on this one.

Lets get some pictures not quite as close as the 3rd and 4th ones you have posted. I see what you are asking about but being right on top of it doesn't give me as much to work with as I like. You have to see more of the entire area. Back up a hair and shoot a few more shots. The shape of the anomaly is interesting. let's see what you have:-)

I had a dime just like this the other day. If I find it I will try to get pictures and maybe this can be solved.

 I agree with foundinrolls. A middle size shot would be great, plus a shot of the whole reverse and obverse. I see the second M but it almost looks as if were hit with some kind of post mint M shaped die. The details are sunken also not just the field. Tough call. I would like to see the obverse to see if there is any damage in the corresponding area.

I added a few more pictures of this coin. Not much better but different. Going to get me a nice coin microscope here in about a month. Then I will be shooting some nice pictures.

I am leaning toward what is called a dropped letter error.

I don't know what it is, but I like it. I like anything that you can see with the naked eye and I keep them all - even if it's nothing special. At least it's different.
