Not an error, just plating bubbles.
Once they break, zinc rot will set in.



Darn autocorrect

How could this happen? If someone took a straight pin and carefully picked certain areas on the coin to make a split in the plating, you could create this easily. Tap on the rim head with a light hammer and split the plating. It would be easy to create these. So not a mint error. But altered coin issue.
