My turtle got out of her tank today. She landed on the ground and when I found her she had a minor outer scute missing. Here are the pics. No bleeding and she wasn't making any hissing sounds or anything. She seems okay but wanted to check these pics with you guys is possible. Thanks so much in advance ImageImageImage

That looks more like a marginal that needed to shed. Coincidentally, marginals are usually the last (hardest) pieces to shed.
