Here’s a kool 1 for you all. Advice if errors like this are worth grading or eBay as is. That’s even if it’s an error. No mint mark.

    Looks like incuse marks, damage from another coin’s Reeded edge hitting that area most likely.
    Not an error, just post mint damage.

    Welcome. Nah, that coin won’t light up anyone here. Look around and see what is cool.

    I tried lining it up with another coin with the shield over the crease and the rim/edge of the coin wouldn’t allow it to lay flush.

    I do not comprehend what you are saying. I also see nothing of note in the shield area.
    If you take a nice uncirculated half and smack the edge reeds onto another half in a flat area…viola
    You can see reed hits on larger coins like halves and large dollar coins if you look at enough of them.
    I suspect these types of hits happen at the mint, in bags, or when dropped into a roll or tube.

    I pretty much overlaid another Kennedy over that area to see if it would make contact. But that makes sense. Thanks for the info.

    99.999% of all anomalies on coins are damage. There are a limited number of ways that an actual mint error or variety can be made.

    Respectfully, you are approaching this backwards. Don't look at coins and find anomalies which you then try to categorize. Look at real, certified errors and study the coin references and then the actual errors will jump out at you.

    BTW, no US coin had a mint mark in 1965-67.

    You should also accuse me of picking fights and being arrogant.

    Memes help.

    You're confusing me with some of your more strident fans.

    I only implied that you like to play devil's advocate.

    I'll be glad to meme you though.

    That was more a generic "you" than a specific "you". I want to make sure the newbie gets the entire playback. 😉
