I will post a picture of the full reverse later. It looks like lamination and a doubling on the reverse ?

The coin is slabbed already and that piece of metal is straight up.
Looks like what is commonly called a "lamination error," or more technically a "de-lamination error," where an impurity in the original cast ingot that got rolled out and the planchet punched from it caused the surface of the coin to crack.
Yeah; what he said.
CaptHenway is correct..... Cheers, RickO
Cool. AUandAG sent me a similar coin a couple of years ago. Maybe I'll bring it home and photograph it.
Nice fellow that AUandAG guy.
Yes. A lamination. I only have one Peace Dollar lamination in my collection, but it is a good sized one.
Lamination for sure. Guaranteed
.
i do not recall if lamination-type errors merit the error designation. usually, they aren't worth the fee and have little demand. the bigger the better. especially if they lead to a clamshell and/or horizontal planchet separation aka a split planchet.
often times, ones of this size/type hurt the resellability. a few exceptions aside.

A 'peeling lamination' error, but this is something our hosts won't holder (I'm not really certain why, but that's probably why it was sent in ATS for grading). I had a Wash/Carver commem with the same type of lamination, about twice the size of the OP's, with much more of the lamination peeled back, almost like the top of a sardine can as it's being opened. The coin itself was an upgrade candidate, and really quite beautifully toned, even with the lamination. When I sent in, it was returned back to me, and that's when it was explained to me they didn't holder them any longer. That was a number of years ago, and I'm not sure if they still won't holder them or not. Cool error, nonetheless.
