Didn’t notice this dent before processing, but it showed up after everything sat overnight. I don’t think the ring wasn’t overtightened, it’s still sealed and everything. New quilted jelly jars with the lids that came with them

I would worry a little bit about that lid, and choose to keep that jar in the fridge & use it up sooner. It may have a good seal now, but the dent could compromise it over time. It was probably a defect from the factory or something- that doesn’t look like a dent that you’d get from anything inside the jar, or from the canning process itself.
