I have a 1930 D Wheat penny, worn heavily as expected. Under my scope though on the reverse I found something that I'm not sure if its just wear or a possible error. On "E PLURIBUS" it almost looks to read "E PLURIIBUS" I've attached photos as usual. Would love to know what this is if its not just wear. Thanks for looking and the feedback!
