Looks like the metal is raised up around the edges so likely somebody playing with a hammer and punch.

Specifically, it appears to have been impacted twice with a Phillips screwdriver. On the obverse side you will probably find a corresponding flattened area.

I like the screwdriver theory but pacificcoin obviously nailed the reason on the head.

Official cause: nickel mite, case closed :-P

Scissel is right...the pit looks like the result of a philip screw driver head.
