Any Ideas? Some times I think it's mint error. Other times I think it was intentional mutilation.

Looks like post-minting heat or fire exposure limited to offense (the side facing heat source probably).

I've a few coins like that - always on one face only. I don't see how it could be mint damage? I always taken it to be post-issue damage.
