Yes I found a 1929 Wheat penny with the number 7 under Lincoln chin! I need to see if it's an error or something else!

First,

Is the shape indented into the surface of the coin, rather than being raised above the surface? Can you get a sharper photo of that area of the coin?

On a 90-year-old coin that has seen a lot of circulation, what you are seeing very likely is just circulation damage, but I would like to rule out one other possibility (struck though) and that will require a sharper photo. It can't be a die clash, since the position is too far west and the wrong angle to be a clash from the "T" of CENT.

@JP40, first welcome to CCF. Second, that follow-up pic is pretty good. I think that @silverdollar2017 and the others were right that this is just damage from decades of circulation.
