Looks like damage from blunt force trauma.

Very hard to see what you are in the OBV pics. When I zoom in I see small blobs between the denticles and the rim around 2:00 - 3:00. But the pic is also fuzzy so could be photography atifacts.

The Reverse at 7:00-8:00 is as Daniel says - it took a hit.

I'm going to guess that this is from "Stacking Pressure".............

Are you referring to abnormally Strong Strike Due to Stacked Coins

As a generalized term, "Stacking Pressure", occurs when numerous coins are stacked together, and there is enough pressure to transfer a design element from one coin to another.

Hello Paul,
You have not mention error coin in your comment. Therefore, my coin was crushed by a hydraulic pressure and the results is an elastic spring-like behavior that cause the coins to explode

They spring back to their original shape with great force. Although there are some coins that were hydraulic press past the elastic region. the coins slipped out from under the hydraulic press and exploded.

Got to be home made,

Thank you for the tip.A+
