Hi all. I have a few of the South African R1.00 coins that have these stretch marks on them. What is this kind of error called?

IMO they are not errors.
The coins appears to have been struck from overused dies that are deteriorating.

I agree. Though, the deterioration is strong enough that they would serve as a good example of what Die Deterioration is if you decided to keep them.
