I'm thinking that it's some sort of stain.

Struck through objects really seem to get embedded in the surface. This seems more superficial.
You might be able to replicate this pattern by soaking some burlap in Coke and letting the coin sit on it for a day or two.

The break in the T doesn't happen from a stain or coke on burlap either.

All night soak and still no change. It is not a stain you can feel the texture of the hatching easily

I agree with the above it looks like a stain/chemical change to the actual surface of the coin. Unfortunately pictures are 2D so it's impossible to tell if this is in the surface of the coin.
But the details, all of them, should be fuzzy looking for a true struck through. You would not see any sharp edges. But again, we are just dealing with 2D pictures.
Try xylene. Safe just like acetone but a solvent that can take off what acetone leaves behind.

So @earle42 if that's true then this listing isn't a struck thru cloth by your logic

Sure looks like a struck through cloth to me, especially with the closeup provided of the T showing differences in height of the metal. That doesn't appear to be staining. staining.

On the half, it's struck into the surface. On your coin its added to the surface. Something has permanently stained it.

Looks like it was painted thru cheesecloth or such and then circulated.

I really hope that it's struck through cloth because that's a pretty cool find for you, but I believe it to be some sort of staining or acid that ate into the coin.
