Let me know if this is a common error or worth keeping. According to CoinSnap it's also in mint state which is pretty nice!

@sub, you've posted this to the grading subforum. If you want folks to weigh in on their estimate of the grade, then please add an overall picture of the reverse of this coin. Thx.

Not an error, a normal part of the minting process, worth 1 cent.
