Now like all people I want this to be a "no d", however logic dictates that's not plausible. Now, the pictures don't really catch it, but there is a large, deep gouge where the MM would be that is in the direction of the displaced metal/MM. So, I assume a failed removal of the 'D' MM. What do you think? Damaged 1922-D? Damaged 1922-Weak D? Let me know, Thanks, GC.    |

Here is an overlay to see if the coin was dimpled on the reverse?   |

With all the tooling marks, it screams that somebody tried to take the "D" off of it and failed miserably.

It looks to me like a 22-D that took a nasty hit right on the MM . Coop, what the heck does your photos have to do with OP's coin .  |

If work was done to remove the mintmark and if that caused a corresponding swelling on the reverse , Coops overlay would give us a location on the reverse to find it.

Same here. This will never be anything but a damaged 1922D.
