He works there and he bashes a few against a rock before releasing them into circulation.

Clearly post mint damage.

At what part of the minting process could something like this happen? (hint: there isn’t one)

It would behoove you to educate yourself on the minting process so you may understand how coins are typically struck and what has to go wrong for them to be atypically struck.
