I think this is a fibroepithelioma of Pinkus (fenestrated trichoblastoma).  The retraction artefact is suggestive of a BCC and these two entities can be confused.  The distinction between them was clarified by Richard Carr in his discussion of Case 836 on 30th August 2013.

The patient is elderly enough to have received the old-fashioned treatment of spinal radiotherapy for ankylosing spondylitis which was frequently implicated in causing these lesions.

Yes. Agree with Pinkus.

My differential diagnosis would be Infundibulocystic BCC
