1878-S Morgan with lines in eagle's right wing - New Pics

Just wondering if anyone has seen this before on an 1878-S. It might be tough to see in the photos. There's an area on the eagle's right wing (viewer's left) that has many small lines. It looks like someone engraved some feathers to fill an area that was overpolished.
