It looks like heat damage which causes the surface of the coin to swell.
Do not hold coins in your hand when taking photos.
Always lay them on a flat surface.

need to see the reverse to see if the coin was hit by something to accurately tell what happened - However it didn't happen at the mint.

Seeing both sides of the coin would be more helpful. If the reverse looked the same as the obverse, it is a bubble in the coin from heat applied to the coin.

The coin was normal, so it is not a mint error. It was altered post strike.

@dj, first welcome to CCF. Second, would you mind adding the date of this quarter to this post? Including this information helps with the search functionality and assists those who come here in the future. Thx.

Showing both sides of a coin is always important.
