Has anyone ever seen this KIND of marking on a dime in their travels ?

If so please describe what caught your eye. Also, did you ever follow up on your find as I am doing now.
Please keep it short and thanks.
I'll explain later as I get the information too where it is needed .

    It looks like you changed the color in the circled region?
    That makes it difficult to judge the true contrast of the feature you are looking at,
    compared to the surrounding fields.

    Coin is not in my inventory, come to think about it, it may not be in the owners either?
    @ JBK ,
    So that's a, no go, sight ? I can respect that answer.
    Got no answer I can run with ? That's cool runnings
    I'm moving right along though, as I can do without any witness's to support my help on this subject.
    PLUS, it's boosting avenues in my research.
    I'm not stupid.
    Input.....Input... Number 7..........Lol

    Looks like a contact mark that may or may not resemble a letter or some symbol.

    Your exactly correct.
    The HUE you see in the photo is a filter on the embossed image of...... S 75.
    I'm working with the owners dull photos.
    Coin is not in my thoughts at all, other than to notify the owner asap..
    Then he can handle that problem, meaning better photos.
    Other than that, kay sa ra,sa ra........
    Thanks

    I may as well give my thoughts, views, or just a spit ball guess.

    It's the die reference ID, with it's history, that can not be questioned or changed.
