    They are horn with bug bites at the pin is how it looks to me. I've had a couple of those pass through and translucent horn is common. Sometimes dyed to look like tortoise shell. I don't know how to fix 'em but I would try epoxy or gorilla glue.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    When I first saw the damage, my immediate thought was that it looked like worm holes. But, when I saw the translucence, I largely dismissed horn and thought it was probably some early bakelite-like substance. So, dismissed worm or bug holes.

    You guys have about convinced me on the horn idea. I'll read up on horn...
