Is this a ground down pontil mark? Looks weird to me. (.64 inch)

I was about to mix this into a handful of other random/contemporary marbles but it felt weird (like literally, I felt the weird roughness on opposing ends of the marble when moving it between 2 containers and sorting.) I tried to include several images of both sides, if this is ground down to be flush they went way deeper on one side compared to the other.

Here is the other side, it's less distinct (and harder to convey details) than the "Top" in the first post. It is almost perfectly lined up with the other pole, but it looks like any corrections made may have slightly...overcorrected.

May be cuts from a cane ? Handmade marbles can be made or cut from a cane. Which may be three or four marbles cut off of one cane. But do not see many handmade clearies and with the seedy not so good glass.

I left out one or two of the other pictures that did not focus on the marks, It doesn't seem to strictly be a clearie, It does have a white brushed looking streak;
