Looks like a lamination of the planchet. Nothing to do with the die.

Not PMD, planchet laminations(or delaminations in this case) are caused by a flaw in the alloy itself. That flaw can cause layers to separate and peel away from the planchet. Laminations will frequently be in a straight line and you will see the natural grain of the alloy when one peels off.

Lamination= layers are separated but still attached
Delamination= layers have peeled off the planchet

biokemist6:This coin has both. Lamination above the "7" ,"Delamination" near the rim. I think the other marks may be PMD.
