Moonage and Mystery?

Testing out the Gstar-ex with moon pics as follows.

1/
Montage with 5 pics overlayed to get the full moon in. C9.25, 0.5 Focal reducer + Gstar-ex = F5.0

2/
Detail shot of Mare Crisium C9.25 + Gstar-ex = F10

3/
Detail on the North East Limb above Mare Crisium C9.25, VIXEN C-mount Tele-extender 2.4, = F24.
Now here is the mystery! I have identified the craters in this image except for one on the very edge of the limb. The full moon Atlas does not show it and I'm at a loss. Does anyone know what it is?

All comments greatfully recieved

all the best

Paul
