coin isn't in the greatest shape to begin with so wondering if its PMD or a struck through? (or something else)

if PMD I would expect to see some evidence of the strike on the opposite side of the coin, but there is nothing.

got in a CWR today at the bank (along with a couple of 1812 twoonies)

opinions/comments appreciated

Looks legit to me. Too deep to be a strike-through, without elements showing on the other side. I think it is a lamination, or delamination, error, which separated from the coin after the strike. Small ones are common with loons, but larger ones seem to be a bit scarcer. Good eye!
