OK here's an odd question. When a coin is heavily counterstamped (or chopmarked) and the design of the coin OPPOSITE the mark is damaged / obliterated is there a numismatic name for this damaged area?

Doggedly collecting coins of the Central American Republic.

As a side note, flattening makes me think of one of the first coins I ever saw repaired - from ANACS "unc details, bent" into another service's MS63.
