Looks like it was struck though something, maybe cloth and the circulation has removed some of the fabric detail. This page: http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/S...0Errors.html shows some examples of what struck through cloth errors look like.
Looks more like a lamination peel in that area. If it were struck though cloth you would see the pattern of the cloth. Bit we can see the ghost image under the area where it peeled.
