So there is a discoloring which includes what I would call a ghosted image of the "D" mint mark which appears to be the correct size but location is out of place. Thoughts appreciates as I could not find any insights online let alone any differences in stamps between the two mints, obviously beyond the mint mark!!!  |

 To CCF! We're going to need much better photos and a close up of the area in question. Errers and Varietys.

So you are saying there is a misplaced D mintmark on the reverse of the coin?  |

How about this one.having to deal with 300k max file size Looking straight at the coin, it's very hard to see, but not at an angle   |

@marve65. No only misplaced but these is no raised "D" at all.just a metallic discolored D and streaks (like some patina)
Going to try and get a sunlight pic of it tomorrow to better capture this

You're talking about that mark below the olive branch? That's just a weird stain.

 Looks like just a stain. Pareidolia definitely comes into play . |

If you're talking about the "D" next to the olive branch, it could be stain or some form of toning, definitely not cause by the Mint.
Edit: 3 minutes late in my reply.

 Just Pareidolia, folks. It was swamp gas reflecting some light from Venus. You will keep collecting coins, you will not forget that coin is 90% silver, and you will have a wonderful evening on Coin Community Family forum. Thank you for your attention. |

looks like half of the reeded edge is not reeded anymore.
A better image of that area will help out.

  Okay, here's a couple new pics and hopefully people can see the "D" is just like the size of a normal mint mark.could not be the result of another coin coming into contact as it would be reversed If truly some sort of extraordinary stain, then I ask the expert here if there is a physical difference between the two mints I could look for? Thanks |

Hmm, that stain is giving the appearance of the mintmark, but is paridolia. The real mm would be a tad farther up from where that stain is.  |
