Your photo is not clear enough to determine what caused that. Damage, lamination, strike-through ? Try to focus better on the area in question and always crop the photos.

Looks like a lamination error.

It looks like an old peeled lamination. The sharper edges of the peel have been worn by continued circulation.

Looks like a chisel or some other device has been pressed or stamped into it.

A sharp close-up of that area would help.

I'd like to provide a better photo but there are limitations to my phone. It's from my old phone S7 and my iPhone 11 doesn't have a telephoto lens so I can't do close ups on that.
