Hard to tell if this is PMD or not, the areas of weakness especially the reverse look like examples I've seen before.

Linked below is an example of what I mean, albeit more extreme:

Agree--looks to be circulation wear typical of a hard working, long serving '66.

I agree, possibly a combination of a minor Greaser and wear.

With the symmetric poorly formed rims at k6 on the reverse and k12 on the obverse as well as symmetric weakness of the strike in the center of the devices, I'm inclined to agree with the weak strike idea, perhaps with a slightly tilted die as well.

Weak or no rims and symmetry of weakness in devices on both faces almost always means weak strike over grease.
