2007-P Jefferson Dollar Error?

[AU24K]

I was looking over some of my Presidential Dollar coins and saw this;

Is this upside-down "U" an error?
If so, is it common?

Thanks in advance for any info you may provide.

I'm thinking PMD, but it might be real.

Interesting is it bumped out of the coin or recessed into the metal?

All around it, it is slightly recessed and the actual "U" is raised.

I don't know the correct terminology, but could it be a "die collar" error?

The coin possibly picked up the raised "U" due to a collision with the edge of another Presidential Dollar during sorting or bagging but could just as easily be a Post Mint man made error!
