I saw some shadowing around the mintmark on this 83D penny, and upon closer examination it looked like it might be a RPM. Comments?

Are you referring to the green to the east and south of the mint mark? I think that is also a plating issue.

I see what they are talking about. I'll wait for the experts to chime in.

Like your other posts concerning anomalies like this, it is split plating. The core is zinc and corrodes very quickly and easily. That is what this shows.
