The bits in the smaller pictures i.e. -The wheel in the 6 oclock position has a lump of metal in it , compared to other similar wheels.

-The top part of the hologram has some metal and it looks raised

and there is another lump of metal around the 9 oclock position between the wheel and the border of the hologram .....

I'm not familiar with that coin but it looks like the first small photo shows a die gouge. The other two could also be the result of a damaged die but they could also be metal displaced from impact.

Look up die gouges and see if your coin matches any photos you find.

Thanks for the tip-off Buddy !

After looking up die gouges it certainly looks like one of those fits the definition !
