It looks like an S mintmark and I believe that is a circulation hit that flattened the upper portion.

I agree with @spru, that this seems like circulation wear and tear--here is a close-up pic oriented so you don't need to tip your head:

Pretty much a melt item now. Damage moves them out of the collectable phase. Cash it in for silver melt.

It's taken a circulation hit, so it is post mint damage ( PMD), no matter how you slice it or dice it.
