It's hard to tell, but sometimes fungus or shell rot starts out looking like that. And because it's symmetrical (on both sides), I'm inclined to think fungus. Do you keep the tortoise on wet substrate?
Thank you for your answer.
These photos are from morning before every day water spraying.
Non basking half once a day so it is not dry, basking part 1-3 a day as it dry out quickly.
Last photo is from hide when removed.
Should I try to use some coconut oil on it? Or more calcium (getting it twice a week)?

Just try some simple Dollar Store Athlete's foot creme for a few days. If it goes away then well it was fungus if not then try the coconut oil. BTW the cheap athletes foot creme has the same ingredient that the expensive ones do
