I'm going to say it's some type of post mint damage as it looks like someone started or tried to put a hole there.
Others may disagree.

Yeah I was quite taken back when I saw the mint mark -- super strange, never seen one like it!

So you were right - that was a short lived dream :) When I looked at the wole coin I realized there was another mark on the obverse that I hadnt even noticed - it definately was someone trying to make a hole - sorry for not looking at the coin closer! I'm an idiot :)   |

@DB, first welcome to CCF. With regard to: Quote:
sorry for not looking at the coin closer don't stress because we have all done it. For example, I recently told someone on a thread here that their coin was only worth face value without realizing that it was silver (I hadn't bothered to look at the date).

Your first photos got me too. Sure thought you found something fantastic. To bad it isn't what we all thought. |

Your original pic made me think it could be a rare variety, but after looking at the obverse, it's only a hole, unfortunately. to the CCF! |
