Welcome to the forum. As you said it’s hard to see anything clearly in the pictures. However it appears it’s just circulation damage. There isn’t a DDO for that date so that’s really all it could be. It’s common for the raised areas to take hits and get distorted. If you can get sharper images people will give you much more info.

This is not an error just a die that was used well past its useable life and what you see is die erosion which deformed the letters/numbers.   Add in some circulation wear to further flatten the devices and this is what you get.
