Hello everyone, is it possible to have the same error in the same spot in all three years? I have all three years with the same die chip error in the same spot. This is a first for me. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for all you help. Here are the pics.

Well, they are not exactly the same shape or location. However, this is a very common area for these die chips form for some reason. They have been called 'Hornets Nests' not.
