1956-D Mintmark Placement

Is there anything unusual about the mintmark placements on these two pennies. The one on the left seems high and to the left as opposed to normal ones I'm finding which are lower and almost center between the 9 & 5? Thanks for the feedback or training.

    Mintmarks were applied by hand up until about 10 years ago so finding coins with mintmarks all over the place is not that unusual for the Lincoln's.

    It does kinda make you wonder what they were drinking at lunchtime though?image
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!
