I have seen this too in a couple of our ball pythons. Did yours shed recently? One bp we have has had this problem once or twice, where the shiny part of a few scales comes off with the shed. I have another who had a full scale come off the top of his head with the shed. Just make sure to raise the humidity during your snake's next shed and it should be fine.
