2021 D Shield Cent What happened here? Plating Bubble

It took me a sec, but then I saw it and I thought the same thing as Mike. Abe has a booger. xD

It sure appears to be a plating bubble although it could possibly also be a small die chip. Either way, neither would be a mint error. Plating bubbles are just a problem that the mint faced in making these copper plated zinc cents. Die chips are considered poor quality control.
