Ok, thank you, any idea on how this PMD may have happened?

@Colorado Coins hard to say. PMD can happen literally infinite ways. Something smushed the mint mark a bit and displaced a bit of metal. What it was that did that is anybody's guess.

Hard circulation damage, pretty common.

Copper, being a relatively soft metal, can be moved quite easily when hit--especially at an angle.

Even dropping it at the right angle could have done that.
