That is Die Deterioration next to the rim. This happened a lot on the 1980s zincoln cents.

to the Forum. Looks like your camera might have moved a little as you snapped the pics. You might try bracing your elbows or camera. They're a little too blurry for me to see the hair. It is definitely Die Deterioration near the rim. The die is worn there in particular and recessed. That makes it come out in relief on your coin.
