Post-mint damage - both the fields and rims show displaced metal.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

HondoB, I don't think so. Yes, the edge did take a small hit there, but not enough to do that. If these were incuse, I'd agree, but, they are raised.

Well, the way I see them I have to agree with HondoB.

can you get an image with the lighting off to one side to create a shadow on the anomalies and part of the coins design too?

Looks like PMD to me, damage to the die would not affect the rims. Maybe another picture would be more definitive.

It bears some similarities to this dime that I found earlier this year. That coin also had uneven gouges inside the rim and atop the rim edge. https://goccf.com/t/490779
