I'm assuming it's a Die Fill, Greaser Struck Through Grease obverse and reverse. I think the queen's hair is struck through... maybe the reverse is as well? looks like it tries to or did squirt out the side of the collar? The rim of the coin is slightly wider in that part but from the side it looks the same height so I dunno exactly, but I thought it was kinda cool. Please don't be PMD. Kinda looks like a quill in the blue circle.

Sorry to tell you but all I see in the pictures is PMD. There is nothing suggesting any of the marks were produced at the mint. I can't see anything which looks like die fill.

. Just PMD unfortunately. Here's what a genuine Struck Through Grease error looks like. https://www.error-ref.com/struck-th...-grease-oil/
