I'm so glad I came across this post from seven years ago. I was given this 2003 Kennedy half dollar. I knew it wasn't an error. Just thought it was unusual, and really wanted to know what caused it. Now I know. Thank you.

@lite, first welcome to CCF. Second, I'm really glad you found us through an old topic. However, since best practice is to start a new thread for each new coin, I've split your reply off from this old topic. In case others would like to see a comparison between this coin and the original one posted, here is a link:

Yes - this looks like a "campfire coin."

Fire damage sounds like a good bet.
