Are you sure that these aren't plating bubbles or zinc rot?  Errers and Varietys.

Magetic copper plated steel planchet, can't be zinc rot

Poke one of the Cuds with a toothpick just for fun. Canada did mint copper-plated zinc cents that year. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

I still like the weld splatter or electric voltage arc, like from a 12 v car battery.

I've never heard of a "multilabel broken rim die coin".
Can you point me to where I can read up on this type of error?
Personally I think your assessment of welders splatter is more feasible.

Interesting find. I am inclined to believe PMD. |

Yup PMD!! This coin was harshly circulated and if you look at the 3:00 picture close there is a break in the cooper plating exposing the planchet. A contaminant (acid like) got under the plating causing a bubble blister raising the rim beads. I see it in other areas of the rim (8:00) and the Queen has that acid like look too. Steel planchet coins are susceptible to bubbling in the right conditions too. My opinion with the coin in hand!! Junk bin #3.  |

Rust blisters, just like the rear quarter panel of any 1960s to 1980s Mustang!
