Cladhunter13, Hi and thanks :) I can't see any doubling, so thats light reflections on the block type images & fonts edges.
I never thought about lamination error! I was remembering seeing some images of some called struck throughs that looked similar in effect, so guessed that as a possibility. But if some of the plating is missing and showing planchet roughness underneath it then yeah, sounds like lamination :)
I seem to see a faint line running to the rim and that makes me think die crack. I don't know if I can crop and enlarge that corner of the coin for a closer view of the whole irregular area but I'll try. I can't see well enough with just my little magnifying glass (and imperfect vision)
