1983 D penny 0

[usmcpilot06]

I have a 1983 D penny with a difinate circle aoround the mint mark. The mint mark is also slight tilted to the left. Is this a know error or variety

   Welcome to the NGC chat board.

   We would need clear, cropped photos of each side of the coin to provide an opinion. (Mint marks were punched by hand into each coinage die until the early 1990s and varied in location and angle, so a slight tilt is likely meaningless.) See the following topic regarding posting questions on this forum:

As stated, clear cropped photos are required.  
Sounds like it could be split plating or zinc rot, but without pictures, that is just a guess.

Yep, I can confirm what the OP says here. The lower end iPhones are terrible at closeups.
