What is this? What causes it? Is it an error? Found several in roll, none are exactly the same amount of weakness. Thanks so much for looking and sharing your knowledge!

Maybe some grease effects. but overall a very normal-looking coin.

OK, I understand grease and the light L but what shoves the mottos on OBV/REV into the rim?

slightly off center strike will move the devices closer to the edge. Which is what I think you have. and a Rim Fin as well.

To me looks like some sort of Die Deterioration and maybe a "Soft Die".
