I'm going to say PMD, but I'm interested in what the experts say. Very odd though. Looks melted. On the second look, I see something going on with the top right corner of the Lincoln Memorial too.

That's a very interesting coin and a good catch too. I look forward to the outcome.

I look near the top of the 4 pillars on the right side & see they are different than the others & ALL lines would match up to the top crest if they werent turned down...

Something scraped along the top of the columns and the area above #'s 2,3,4,5. It then turned down crossing #6.This happened after the coin was minted thus the PMD designation.

For PMD it has a cool look. Kind of looks like the memorial is getting sucked into a vortex  .

Nothing is gouged & the edges close to and on the said area are all rounded like they were melted into place & not sharp in any way...

Not sure how it would happen. As far as I know about the minting process,there is nothing there that would cause that sort of damage. That's why my thought is PMD. Those are some really great photos by the way!!
