in my honest opinion (which may or may not be correct) it looks weird, it looks like it would be a strike through because a clash die would need some design on the reverse die right there to transfer on the Obverse die. That being said its weird because it looks (if it is a strike through) that its struck through at the same place on the Obverse and Reverse and something I don't remember seeing this trait on any other coin. Maybe there was something on the Obverse die and the dies clashed and instead of transferring some of the details of the design it transfered some of the material that was on the die to the other die before this coin was struck. As I said this is just a shot in the wind and as you know when you do that sometimes you hit the target and sometimes you are way off
