Confirm with me if it's zinc rot under the 5th and 6th memorial bays.

Can't be zinc, it's a 1981.

Perhaps a minor die crack or stain?

Right lol I'm dumb. I believe it's either a die crack or die clash.

I still can not understand why people will not post photos of the whole coin

Sometimes it isn't needed keith. If you're mentioning a larger error such as a Cud or a die break, yes taking full photos of the coin would be good.

But for tiny things such as this, I don't believe it's necessary.

Posting full photos front and back is a welcome matter of protocol. On occasion, other interesting things are discovered on the coin beyond what the original poster directs attention to. Just sayin'.

Very true. But generally speaking, CH17 managed to spot something very minor. I'm sure something would've caught his attention on the obverse and reverse if he was looking that in depth.

Sometimes it can be tedious to take whole pics of the obverse and reverse, especially with the type of microscope both CH17 and I have.

My scope is really bad at doing full pics of the coin, but guess I'll do it anyway so you can sleep at night :

Never hurts to shows us the whole coin (front and back).

I agree with SS, either a die crack or a stain.
