I was wondering if the first L in dollar was an error. Also the mark above dollar(mint mark?) Also on Lady Liberty's jaw, there is a mark that goes almost to the rim. Is it possible all of these are errors? Thanks

All three were caused by well-placed hits from circulation.

Those are not errors. These are scratches from circulation wear and tear. It's Post Strike Damage ( PSD), meaning that it happened after it left the U.S. Mint.

Yes, the shape of the L was distorted by a random hit, possibly from another coin was back when it was brand new in a mint bag!
