@short, no need to apologize for wanting to learn more. It is why we are all here.
The circular groove on the front is likely damage from a wrapper rolling machine. The toning on the rev is from some sort of environmental or chemical exposure. Some folks like toned coins while others don't.

Ok well it is a little hard for me to see what you have then. Maybe Ridge Ring?

It looks like a form of die wear, akin to Ridge Ring. John1

 Looks like rim ring to me from a worn die. In picture 3, above the 89 it looks raised, basing this on the lighting angle.

When the last polishing was done, it left that area altered a bit on the die. Not a doubled die, just a die event.

That's what I thought was rot because t when I looked closer it like sinks in after that line so I thought something hevey disgorged it or like bent it but it's flat on the other side so I was confused
