Nice photos
Looks like PMD to me.
Not anything that could happen when the coin was struck.

Agree you can see where the metal has been pushed to one side.

Looks to me like it was pushed to one side with a highly heated tip of a tool of some kind.

Yes, post-strike damage. Very interesting push of metal--kinda scalloped. Not clashed die, in my opinion.

Crater, one big thing to remember if you have a gouge on a coin along with a buildup of metal beside it, 99.9% of the time it's damage.

Interesting Push of a Foreign object into, with tremendous force, This Lincoln Cent. I believe IF a coin was Forced into this Cent with reeded edge, the Arc seen would relate Stronger, angularity wise, What is seen is Not, from another coin... I think the Foreign object was Much Stronger than a Coin....JMO.

Coin was altered. You can see the multiple pushed metal lines. (Someone had "Too Much Time On My/their Hands") Styx Song. {Song I sing in Karaoke}

Maybe they were trying to cut it into "Pieces of Eight".

Just remember that it's a Grand Illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
