Any collector Interest in Misplaced Mint Marks? Pictured: 1964 D 25C Misplaced Mint Mark (way off)

I found this 1964 D quarter with an unusual mint mark. It's misplaced far south and it appears to be smaller [?] than other Denver Quarter mint marks I've compared it to. I don't have a good way to measure it, but it appears visually smaller. Maybe it looks smaller because it's low, though?

Any community thoughts on this one? I won't get mad if yall tell me it's nothing.

    It's interesting and I'd keep it if it were mine.

    There's a nickel (maybe 1975?) with a dramatically misplaced D mintmark that has some value.

    Interesting variety, properly centered but low.

    New Collecting Idea: It might be interesting to assemble the lowest, highest, most right and left centered mintmarks, either for the date/mint or series.

    Collector and dealer in obsolete currency. Always buying all obsolete bank notes and scrip.

    Who's to say that isn't proper position and all the rest are off? B)

    Interesting. Haven't see that before. I think this one is a true misplaced MM since it's outside the "placement area"
