Almost looks like the U in TRUST maybe turned counterclockwise?

Found a 1926 in pocket change? That doesn't happen often and a nice keeper for oddities.

It looks like something or someone partially cut this coin ,warping it in the process. years of circulation have flattened the high points while protecting the lower. Cool find.

Stoneman hit the nail on the head with his reply

I agree. The coin looks like it was pinched but if you look closely you can still see the last ST of TRUST. Very faintly.

The S is tough, but the T is easier to pick up. It is extremely faint.

Looks like someone took a pair of side cut pliers an made a mark on two different areas.

 with the cuts, Coop. The complete wear to the ST is odd when the other letters are so strongly pronounced. The IBE also very faint like Struck Through Grease.

tweak800 If you are referring to Stoneman227's explanation than that would explain the wear to the cut areas, and most likely the LIBE. The reverse wear doesn't all line up with that explanation. But whatever. I've spent enough time on this one to care.

Tweak, I wouldn't say it was "explained" so much as speculated upon. In all honesty we'll probably never know for certain (unless a forum member sees the coin & says "oh yeah! I did this once").
