I found this while roll hunting today. Is this the real thing?

Looks like a normal mint mark. The die is experiencing die wear at the poin when your coin was struck. But Looks pretty normal other wise.

In your third image, the gray colored one, you can see the heavy die flow lines (denoting die wear) and the also flow up the left side of the mint mark. They die is showing its age. (kind of like wrinkles on a Senior person)
