From what I can see it looks like there was a chip in the die that struck it.

Looks like a die event happened that damaged/gouged the area under the mint mark and also below the coat to the rim.
Rest in Peace

There is a slight possibility of an RPM but need cleared and closeup of date/MM like this pix of what appears close:

I say close because the east protrusion in your looks higher than in 1957D-1MM-011

your's seems more centered and doesn't even show in pic #1. Markers in this die state(MDS) are very heavy verticle die gouges running through the date, especially the 5.

This is a die chip. I have found several 1957-D's with this same chip under the MM.

I'm a newbie..and therefore I tend to "see" things where there are none (or not see what exists), but.... I see a D over a D (repunch mint mark = RPM) and a die chip under it.

I see a die gouge. Need better pics for me to tell about the possible RPM. Also,if it is an RPM it would not be an error it would be a variety.
