Please educate me as to how this happened. Is this an error or PMD?

Many times, damage that looks like that is typically caused by the rim of another coin when smashed together. However, such a smash job will also usually leave weak-strong incuse details from the other coin in addition to the rim groove. Since I do not see any traces of another coin, I will go with damaged by unknown round object.
