Hi 

If you are refering to the white dot around 1 o'clock-ish, Its a crater called Aristarchus

??

It is quite normal to me nice image maybe it's just a light reflection on the crater, you can always check it out on a Moon map but I do not think you have made any new discoveries.

It's the crater Aristarchus.

Nice area of the Moon. Aristarchus (named after Aristarchus of Samos, the first Greek thinker to put the Sun rather than the Earth at the centre of the universe) has the highest albedo of any large lunar feature. The smaller crater Herodotus is close by, with Vallis Schroeteri just to the North. One of my favorites.
