Found this cent that looks like a D mint mark was stamped over a S mint mark.Is it possible on a 1983?

Also found this strange one.The cent is not in very good shape,but still is it PMD or was there something on the die when struck?
It's in the shape of a ring.

The second one is PMD as for the other one D/S, I think better pictures are necessary.
 
Hard to get some good pics.

Hmmm...this is really odd I would try another forum like The Lincoln cent resource forum. They are experts there. It takes a couple minutes to set up an account and you'll know exactly what it is within 24 hours of posting it.
 
Ok,Thanks!!
 
The 1983 looks like damage, but don't trust me on that. I would also encourage posting in the Coins section, to increase visibility from collectors.
 
It's just damage. The mints are on opposite sides of the country and SF only uses proof dies. Need a close-up of the mint mark, but pretty sure it's just zinc rot.

How are the mints on opposite sides of the US? I understand they are far, but they are not that far.
