I put this penny under the microscope and in the hole appears to be a portion of the "s" mint Mark! The hole goes 5/8th of the way through. Has anyone seen anything like this before? It appears that the coin was not set properly when the mint Mark was stamped. Opine!

Looks like he just dropped his earring, that's all.

No, seriously, I have no idea, looks like someone playing with fake mintmarks?

I'd say you're right Scooby.

I don't see any kind of a mint mark,looks more like it was a target for a BB gun. IMHO.
