Yes, I'm thinking mechanical sealing/packaging damage. Will be fun to learn the results of TPG submission.

Grade this coin? Nah. Nothing showing, of any value. Note what the actual grading costs are, and what value your coin has or doesn't have in this case.

I agree with John1. Don't send it in for grading. It's damage. Save your money.
Errers and Varietys.

I want to know what TPG think of it sure, however ill absolutely reconsider if it can be reasonable pointed out which direction the metal was moved on obverse or some other type of witness marks suggesting damage. The reverse yes I looked again and ill agree dmg because I can see metal movement. If the obverse showed signs of damage I'd just spend it, it doesn't look damaged tho on the obverse.(My work requires deburring metals often at 10x magnification, scratches cuts gouges or other damage will get parts rejected if visible at 10x. I rechecked that obverse meticulously doesn't look damged tho.) reverse ya that's some kind of damage I agree. obverse nope that's something else. Or it's a new type of metal alteration I haven't personally seen before and I want to know what it is for sure. Even if it comes back details at least I'd know what it was. And I'd be good with that. However if I can learn here for free first it is always cool. I just can't see a sealing machine doing this tho just doesn't sit well with me but show me how it's possible I'm open to ideas and learning why and how. I'll start rechecking sealing damage and if that's what it is then that's what it is and trust me won't waist my money. If it's not looking correct I'll send this in with my first submission it wouldn't hurt my feelings getting a details my first go around. Anyway ill start looking up more info and get back on what I find. if anyone wants to post info to compare against I'd appreciate that.

Sure looks like sealing packaging machine damage but I'm not sure what a TPG company will say now that it is out of the package

This appears to be damage yes I will agree.  This doesn't look like damage to me.

You do realize the damage is in the same spot on the rims obverse and reverse right? so something (package sealing machine) clamped over the coin.
