No.
Years ago there was supposed to be this critter of an over mint mark in the Lincoln Cent Memorial series, 1980 D/S. Regarded my many as a legit OMM, it was debunked shortly after I paid around $300 for an AU example in the early 2000s.
D'oh. It was just die damage, and an early die stage coin proved that .
I believe the only overmintmarks in the entire Lincoln cent series are the 1944 D/S and the 1946 S/D.
Plenty of relaunched mintmarks, though. Hunt for those

Sorry but it's damage. The D mm took a pretty good hit
No it's not.
The mintmark has a ding on it which slightly moved the metal.
Damage ... maybe from a hit from another coin.
so, spare change?
Well, it's worth 2 cents or so as copper.
I will join the consensus... damaged mint mark..... Cheers, RickO
