This might be a delusional observation, but on this 1897 at 10:00 on the obverse there is a gouge that in size and shape almost appears to be a repunched star.

Any thoughts?

More likely a hit from another dollar while being dumped into or out of an original bag. The angles don't line up with a star either.
