It is usually called a lamination, but I suspect this time it is a struck through debris on the coin.

Your coin has glue or lacquer on it. See how it flows around #'s and is reflective.

But glue doesn't form the rough edges that are on this struck through/lamination.

Well, the best way to succeed is to fail a few times then comeback and win.

Sometimes it helps having a lot of eyes looking at a problem.
