If it is raised, then it is some sort of damage. Possibly something adhered to it.
No way that could happen when the coin was struck.

Shadowing says it is raised. If so, I agree with Jimmy.

It's a strike trough error. Some foreign material got between the die and planchet before striking.

Definitely indented. Maybe it is a strike through.

Thanks for your input. I was thinking the same thing and whatever it was has
fallen off. Strange shape as well.

How could something fall off if it's indented? Unless, it WAS raised and whatever the blob was then fell off leaving it indented..

The part that fell off in this case, is the object that caused the indent in the coin.

Those pic's fooled me too 1st time around. Good job Rub clearing that up.

Nice loonie.

It's definitely an interesting strike through error. The shape is odd for grease or compacted fill, but I have no idea what else the object could possibly be.
