I'm not sure about this one. It has no comparison to the ones at http://www.coppercoins.com/diesearch.php
In the 1st pic. a line(for lack of a better word) in the top part of the "D"


In both the 1st & 2nd pic there is, what looks like a 2nd "d" on the S.W., inside and on the E of the "D"



Do I need my glasses changed

Thanks
MIke

I know this post was quite awhile ago, but thought to add a supporting photo and occurrence (pardon spelling)
I had seen this effect before, I found the pics and surprised to see it was an 83D also.

To me the east edge looks like zinc showing through the plating.
A tiny split shows on the lower serif/corner of the D.

Yes I agree, and in the upper left inner corner, it looks like the plating was streched there also. Interesting how it follows the contour of the "D" after being rotated slightly.

Thanks for looking.
