    Looks like a contact mark from another half dollar. Edge is reeded so that's why the mark looks like a gear. Philadelphia has no mint marks.

    I thought so too but it's too big to be the imprint of another coin.

    Definitely reeding mark from another half. It can be a rolling hit and the mark looks bigger or squiggly.

    I think it looks pretty cool but am of the same opinion already stated in that it's contact marks from another coin. Can you tell if those marks are raised from the field by chance?

    I would like to see full photos of each side but for now I’m thinking edge reeding.

    That's the thing though they are raised. Here's some more pictures.

    Thank you for the photos. After seeing both sides of the coin I am more convinced that it’s from the reeding edge of another coin.

    That is definitely a hit from another reeded edge coin. It's not a known mint error of any kind unfortunately.
