Looks more like a lamination

 

I was looking that it has a perimeter and extends into his hair? I thought the little star was interesting. Thanks for the look.

 

Looks like it is ready to flake off. I think Hoopster is correct.

 

I see a die crack running along the top with some displacement. Look like a retained interior die break.

Looks like a match to 08 here:
