No such thing on a Lincoln cent for any date, it's a contact mark. Did you check CONECA or Wexler's site first? You must do that to learn what can and can't be.

This sure looks like a "Contact Mark", on a Philadelphia mint cent.

May I suggest that you alter your lighting, and try snapping pictures from different angles.......

As I stated no misplaced mint mark for this date, plus most of these are controversial and some have been debunked as die marks.

Sorry but there's not, it is a contact mark. Your coin doesn't not have a misplaced mint mark. My rule in this community if you can't agree with the advice given in this group is to send your coin to PAUL and not debate. I spent years honing my craft and I am not debating over a contact mark.
