From the images I can't tell if there is a trench cause by another coin hitting it or if that area inside the arrows is raised?
If it is a trench it would be coin damage.
if it is raised it might be a die issue, like a die dent.

Behind on the lingo.
Is this term "MAD Clash" referring
to clashed coins that have a misaligned die only/also
along with a clash or does it have something to do
with that site maddieclashes and those errors ?
On this coin I do not see any major significant misalignment
nor a clash. Maybe a collar or die wobble issue on strike.
?

Hey coop, it is raised, just like another rim sprouted from the existing rim. I first thought die dent, but the more I looked at it, rim started screaming at me.

MAD clash stands for misaligned die clash. The actual clash itself is misaligned. The clash marks will not be where a typical clash is.

Just a thought...is there any way possible that the collar could have clashed with the die causing this dent in the die. Just a thought, I am still a rookie with errors.

Already have DrDon. There is not a listing for it.
Sorry, I thought you were talking to me.

I'm leaning towards a die dent. The rim is caused during the striking in the collar. The dies get dropped or bumped into each other and it leaves a riased area. A rim touching the coin would be incuse and not raised. So it is a die issue.

Thanks for the info and the link.
Visited the site once before but did not
get into it furthur. Just read more now and
it's interesting. Never really looked at them
on indians. Now I will.

The defect is ambiguous. While it could be a radical MAD clash, it could also be a die dent or even a wildly misplaced collar clash. Just file it away in the suspense account.
