Might the word COPY have been removed, resulting in the so-called "planchet void?"

Thought I am no expert on this series, the planchet void looks exactly like examples of planchet void errors on modern coins. Note the reverse weakness at 4:00 to 6:00, due to a lack of metal to fill the raised portions of the design.
