looks like someone got water on the coin and it evaporated while still on the coin.

It's a rare 2001P quarter that DOESN'T have those marks. Stretch marks in the plating while being struck - first year for high-speed, regular production minting of plated quarter planchets, and certainly heat could be the catalyst. (from Charlton catalogue; plating "process was acid based and electroplates a thin coating of nickel, then copper, then nickel again onto a steel core".) Obviously wasn't perfected until 2002.

It wasn't perfected in 2011 either.
My picture I posted above is a 2011 dime.
