….but if worn, why the fine channels?

The first reverse shown is a normal 1982D reverse interest area.

after looking for a while, i'm leaning towards pmd but only to say 85%. it does kinda look like there is something legit going on but for me, it would take an in-hand study. if no washington experts chime in, you may want to post this on the pcgs or ngc forum. i know both have experts in all areas of usa coinage that are at least fairly active.

This (red arrow) image is as high as everything else. Just under the right end of the arrow quills.

On the incuse regular space on the 1982D above, it looks like a mouth biting the bottom corner of the right side of the arrows quills. In the raised version in the 1983P it looks like that also.

hmmm. my brain is struggling with the images. happens every so often when looking at things head-on/close-up.

can you take some shots at different angles of that area and/or any others that appear to have unsual raised areas?

now it makes sense. your eyes are playing tricks on you and that space is not raised.
