@charlie, you have been very thorough with your labeling of perceived errors. That is very good. For the mintmark, this is most likely due to the presence of a broken post on the die used to strike this coin. This a fun find, but pretty common.

Sorry but no errors. Everything shown can be accounted to damage.
Don't forget, it is only an error if it happens during the striking
of the coin. Anything that happens after that is considered damage.

The mintmark inside area was caused when the post that forms the center of the mintmark has broken off the die. (When a void is created on a die, the void will be filled in/not shaped because of the coin on the die.) The rest looks like vending machine damage. A lot of quarters are used in vending machines and the machine damage the coin going through the mecks. Also figure in counting machines, casino machines and gumball machines. (they don't have a chance to not get damaged)
