Electrician, can you post a photo of the entire coin, obverse, so I can explain to Crazy what happened to it during striking and why it didn't come from a reeded coin?

I don't know what caused this but Ive seen some precision hits on coins that you might think only a machine could do..
This one looks very suspicious

Electrician, thanks for the additional pics. This is a very minor and partial Ridge Ring.. like I mentioned earlier, it occurs at the striking. The blame can be put on a deteriorating die, the flow of metal and the copper plating. It's pretty common. As far as a premium, I can't say as I've never seen one sold.

Or a quarter that was in a coin bag that was buried under other bags on the back of a truck that happened to precisely line it's self up exactly with the W on that penny just as the truck rode over a speed bump imprinting a reeded edge and mashing that W downwards as it is now... I think I got that right, Crazy?

Electrician, happy hunting! You have a sharp eye, keep it open.

Or a coin counter may have damaged it. The metal looks pushed inwards?
