Does anyone know what caused this damage? Is it possibly a terminal die state?

Depressed

The reason I asked is it almost looks like another coin could have been pressed into it, there is a collar and a chin profile that kind of matches up. Does the back of the coin have any irregularities?

Is the area depressed into the coin or are they raised?

I agree. I see the same. The back is fine.
