Congrats on the no-problem grade!

I'd guess the defect is a lamination which separated from the coin. It would qualify as a mint error but probably wouldn't enhance the value much. I wonder if 20-cent pieces have a tendency towards lamination issues. My 1878 proof coin shows a lamination-type error at 2:00 on the reverse which has not separated. If the peeling metal segment did separate the resulting void might be similar to the affected area of your piece.

Nice pieces, both of you! My first thought was that it was just a gouge in the coin, but I trust NGC more than I trust myself.
