The coins are sent to a company that rolls the coins for the US Mint and this is a extremely common on ends coins when it comes to bank wrapped rolls. The surface of the coin is gouged and in an obvious circular pattern, and I am 100% positive this does not occur during the minting process and is post mint damage.

I have ran so many coins through counting machines and rolling coins that this can happen often, coins jam easily.
