You have the beginnings of a greasy ghost on the reverse.
Greasy Ghost: A ghost-like image of Lincoln’s bust seen on the reverse of some Lincoln cents caused by a build-up of grease on the reverse die. Since Lincoln’s bust is a large incuse element on the obverse die, the striking pressure on the reverse die corresponding to this area is lower, and therefore grease tends to collect on the reverse die in this area and in the general shape of the bust. Coins struck-through this grease collection will show an incuse ghost-like image of the bust on the reverse. This should not be confused with Progressive Indirect Design Transfer, which is another cause of a ghost-like image of the bust on the reverse of a coin. Images donated by mrmike916, and Roller.
