Thanks for the extra image. But now I'm seeing what Mike mentioned. I see split plating above LIBERTY. Maybe someone intentionally scratched the coin with a razor blade and carefully avoided the letters in LIBERTY. The lower cut looks like they made a mark on the coin, but not enough to split the plating. What people do to coins to make it look like a mint error. That thought was in the back of my head when I was looking at the first images. But it is the answer to this question though. PDS
