Looks like a weak strike. There is no difference in the surface texture where there is no fur and the field next to it.

It is not a weak strike. The highest point on the reverse, is the beaver's butt. The obverse appears to be fully struck. Without the coin in hand, the best I can say is that it is either a strike through, or a minor die adjustment strike. I'll let the nickel error collectors step up to best answer thisone. Good eye!!

Thanks SPP for that analsys. I'm not quite sure what it means by strike through or minor die adjustment. Can you clearify that for me and thanks again, I really appreciate your inputs.
