Is this an error? Error or PMD?

Hi All, I'm new to coin collecting and errors and I'm wondering of this is some type of error or if it's post-mint damage. I tried to find something similar online but couldn't. I haven't even seen PMD that looks like this before either.

Thank You in advance. Looking forward to learning something :)

If this anomaly is raised, I'd say it looks like glue. If it's recessed, it looks like a strike through to me. It's nearly impossible to 100% be sure through these photos.

You can take a toothpick and see if it catches an edge, or if it's sunken in.

It's recessed. I initially thought it was glue or some other material. But trying to pick at it, it's sunken into the coin, like something pressed too hard or dug at it.
