Bit of a glare but if the pictures are accurate it sure looks like it could be have you checked wexlers or coppercoins?

That mark on the 'D' is a master die issue:  The black around the date is part of a finger print that has already done its damage to the coin. The reverse looks like it has a shot at a DDR. Larger images of the device on the EPU are would show us more to see what Die number it might be. |

That just confirms it for me. The "egg" shape gives it away. Nice one!  |

Initially it was the golf club appearance of the L that got my attention. Thx CoinCollector2000

Nice find... I have several 30's DDR's I can't seem to match up with any listed |

Had a feeling the D was a master die issue...can you make out the die gouge inside the C of CENT or the crack near designers initials?

No...the die gouge inside the C I don't see, the initials are super weak and hardly visible, die crack not seen.
On this coin, right of the wheat ear is a die scratch/crack that'd be a perfect pick up point. Not seeing it listed though.

Not knowing the D was an issue for so many coins already as coop has pointed out, coppercoins lists it as a marker for the 005, quote from CC's: "Die damage shows to the right of the D of GOD. Obverse is LDS." You'd think if I that issue was on every D, why would they mention it as a marker?

It was considered as a marker when it was listed years ago. Now we know it is very common. They didn't know that back then.
