At first I thought it was going to be sticky or greasy; maybe penny road kill..but it was neither. Normal lamination flaw/error?

It's not an error. It's a damaged coin.

Some foreign substance adhering to the coin for sure, probably unrelated to the ED.
Rest in Peace

You're very welcome and no problem! It's weird what some people do to coins. For that reason, we'll never know why they did it.
