Something going on with the mint mark. Doubled? Over D? Having a hard time getting close and focused. Any idea what it is anyway?

Might be a die chip, hard to say from these pics.

Could be a chip or just a hit, I am going with hit because I think the chunk of metal in the middle has been moved from part of mm.

Board one; As stated above the mark in the middle of mm is a piece of the mm that was pushed in the middle by a hit or also stated above it could be a die chip.

A little bit better. I'll keep messing with it. I'm not entirely sold on it being a die chip or whatever. Seems a little too defined. But I'll certainly consider your opinions. And I appreciate them all. Wish I could have you see what I see.

No need for more pics, it's a die chip.

Or if you flip the image, it looks like a mom standing behind her son and washing his hair while he sits in the bathtub.
