Is this 1992D possibly a plating error or PMD

In my opinion, It looks like a hole, so it could be Struck through debris or Grease.

I am not fond of zinc coins. It's tough to gauge the depth of this crater. It looks like the copper plating is still intact and not punctured.

Could it have been a decent size zinc blister that deflated ? I dunno. Improper alloy mix?

The patina looks the same, so it may be safe to say that this was not done recently. If the area was shiny on a circulated cent from the 1990s, it may indicate that the issue was done from a few weeks to a few years ago.

The affected area is in the field ( flat area of the coin), so this doesn't affect the devices (letters, numbers or other design features). It also seems to not effect the reverse, which is a "plus" for most issues. The rims look intact, and there does not appear to be any other damage.

It's difficult to assess coins like this without well focused photos that can be zoomed in and not become blurry.

It's smooth,maybe my pictures weren't good enough,there is no interruption to the flow of the coin.
