Looks like a lamination issue to me.

 

Yeah, I was thinking it could also be that...

 

looks like a lamination that peeled off.

 

Ok. Well that seems to be the concensus then. Thanks everyone=p

 

whats a lamination?

 

Here's the definition of a lamination: A thin layer of the die metal which was lifted up and partially separated from the die, appearing on the struck coin as a depressed area, usually with a die crack along one side or edge of the depression.
