 There have been a couple of previous tickets in trac about similar issues:

 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/34762
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/38498

 And we have had a similar issue raised over on GitHub at ClassicPress.

 https://github.com/ClassicPress/ClassicPress/pull/1699

 To reproduce the issue I think the following steps should suffice:

 1/ Create a new install and in the `wp-config.php` file use a custom name
 for LOGGED_IN_COOKIE:
 define( 'LOGGED_IN_COOKIE', 'session_' . AUTH_KEY ); // provided salts are
 defined first
 2/ Ensure you are logged into this new site and retain session cookies in
 the browser.
 3/ Drop all database tables
 4/ Follow the reinstall steps to re-create the database and either see the
 error on screen or in debug.log files
