not a stain at all. just a "fish eye" or printing blotch/defect.

Most are from printing plates having something on them. If you can fill it with your finger it's something in the coating of card stock when manufactured. Last if the last run the pressman did a bad clean up it could have been from the ink or blankets.

Agreed...something in the printing process.

All correct. We referred to those as "hickeys" when we were in the trade. A little fleck of dried ink or a shred of paper
gets stuck on the inked roller or blanket of the press, or on the printing plate itself, and creates that effect. There must be more examples of that card with a very similar print defect.

Often caused by water in the ink or not enough water in the ink during the print process.
