    Looks like a post-strike blob of glue that ran down over the edge.

    Yes it does in the pic.....but it is not, with the little I know it appears to me to be a "clamshell like planchet" that was struck....which would account for the overlapping metal on the edges...

    But this is only a guess on my part.....image
