This variety is fairly well known (to some)- it's featured in the cover page of a recent edition of Strike It Rich. No value stated in the book, but I sold the BU plate coin for $100 and have gotten $20 for circulated examples from interested collectors.
The variety is definitely a result of die abrasion. It comes in 2 different states, without FG and without FG and Lincoln inside the memorial. I have not studied examples side by side to discern whether they are from the same die. There are numerous threads here and on LCR about the coin.
