Could someone let me know what this would be considered if you look at the front of the quarter where the neck and jaw meet it looks like a blank spot

Not sure I'm seeing anything unusual here. Can you be a bit more specific as to what's catching your attention between the jawline and the neck? I see the shadow under the ear and the circulation damage a little SSE from the ear.

If the area is the same level as the fields, a polishing could alter that area. That is what I feel we are looking at on that area. Note it looks level in the area.

What is the weight of the coin. If there is a weaker strike, it might be a thinned planchet issue.

Well it not enough to call it a thinned planchet. It is still within mint tollerance. So I feel the die was polished and the fields were reduced, causing that area to look flat. Not a big thing.
