To CCF! I'm suspecting damage. Can you get a larger picture of the area in question?

This is a raised perfectly circular object made out of the same material with an even more tiny structure on top almost like a bolt

Glued or soldered nail on the coin to be used as a practical joke. The nail has since broken,
but it could have been used to nail it to a board walk at the beach. Seen these many times,
back in the 60's & 70's.

This is smaller than even a finishing nail head or a pin head.

Appears to be a nail prank piece.

Doesn't really matter what it is. It wasn't on there
when the coin was struck so it is damage.
