looking for opinions, on what is going on here. I am sure it is PMD , but wondering what caused it.. it wasn't simply dropped or anything..

I think that it went some place it shouldn't have while it was being spit out of the press/chute at the mint.

I have a similar one, and thought it was sealer damage.

This coin is bent as well from the damage. Obverse is perfect.

Probably damaged during the packaging process... pliofilm sets are probably outsourced now...
