I've found several very minor new 2021 Shield DDO's but didn't think nothing about them and culled them. Found this one today but it was a bit more interesting with what appears to be nice visible notching on RTY, noticeable distortion on the date and the upper right branch of the Y is noticeably thicker. I have seen the other posts on here regarding 2021's so I know this is not a new discovery but just wanted to share it with you. Couldn't get the reverse to size correctly to upload. Thanks!

If you are finding several of these per roll, Check to see if there are any die markers that match on these. Why?. That would indicate a die issue. Sometimes the same events after the coin is struck can cause the same marks on other dies coins. So I'm trying to Identify if this is a die issue or not. What are makers? Something like a die event that matches on all the coins struck by that die. Most often die scratches, die cracks/chips/or abrasion that would show on several coins that link them to a distinct die pair. I've not tried a side by side yet. But the images look interesting.

Good idea coop. I have a little time right now and will thoroughly inspect this one for markers, front and back. I'll post pics of what I find.

There are numerous markers on this Cent. Here are the best and most identifiable ones I could find and further be certain they are die cracks, die chips/gouges and polishing abrasion marks. These Shield Cents are a pain to photograph due to the glare and even determining if what you are seeing is actually a marker thus the reason I have chosen these pics. Hope this helps. (I need a pay raise......)

Die Cracks: Top of head/hair extending to the field and one on Linc's forehead.

Die dots/gouges. Pretty certain the one in the field above the 1 in the date is a die dot but the ones on the reverse are no doubt:
