Can anyone explain and name this kind of error, it looks like a smeared out die? Can't imagine it's MD or PMD

Deteriorated die, aka a worn die? Die polishing error?

You could see if Die Trails or Trail dies, Die flow lines might be appropriate for these. I have seen them before but never took a lot of notice of the correct name.

Anyhow someone else may know exactly what they're called.

At first I was also thinking of trail die, but I dont think it is either.. I have an old example with a trail die of 1 Rupee 1840 British-India, but that looks different. I also noticed some doubling, probably Machine Doubling?
