It looks like it took a hit from another reeded coin pushing the metal upward.

Oddly, it seems to be raised up off of the letter D too. That doesn't sound like a die crack to me, but rather a damaged die.

Ok well those new pics make this look a whole lot more like damage to me. Yes the metal has been smushed up about the surface, but only because it was dug out.

@baldee, we often associate this sort of crenulated pattern with the rim of another reeded edge coin impacting the surface. That would be my working explanation unless someone else has a better idea.

The extra images shows me it is damage from circulation. But the first image looked convincing at first. PSD |
