As you look at the negs, is there a dark edge between the sprocket
holes and the edge of the film?
Hate to say this, but it sounds a lot like X-Ray damage. Another
random thought would be a bad light seal in the camera, but since it
happened on both edges of the film and only 1/2 of the roll, it's
definitely radiation exposure. It isn't light contamination as that
would show other types of damage and usually manafests itself as
blackness along the top/bottom edges of the film outside the sprocket
holes.
And, no, I really don't think it has anything to do with silvernosed
lenses.
