Ive attached a couple pictures of this 1987 D Lincoln Memorial penny that appears to show extra material to the south east of mint mark. I looked for other plating bubbles near-by to try and make sure not attributed to that. I then looked in references (wexlers and Coppercoins-MM008 closest but no match), but not much seems to match. Any suggestions or did the plating bubble machine catch me?
Thanks as always.

I see split plating, zinc rot, Ridge Ring on both sides, and an over polished die issue on the reverse. Not seeing an RPM. https://www.error-ref.com/split-plating/ http://goccf.com/t/323932

Yeah, looks like an open plating bubble - not an RPM

Zinc bubbles always seem to be around the M/M.

Thanks to all. Learning is a process. Many things will grab your attention like PMD, plating bubbles and so forth. Rock On...
