I'm pretty sure it was Struck Through Grease. I just wanted to share it.

Probably the result of over abrasion to remove a clash. That part of the design is very close to the level of the field.

Check your 1970 LMC if you want more. Vary common that year as well. Thanks, Doug.

Keep in mind the clash areas for that area:
1969-D-LMC-Floating-Roof
Over polishing will remove the edges of the roof to remove the angled clash marks. Abrasion/over polishing of the die to remove a clash/clashes. (it is possible that several clashes have happened over and over with over polishing happening)

Yes, that sounds a lot more likely than my grease theory. Even as I was formulating it, I knew it was a little thin. Thanks all.

In addition to RPMs and doubled dies which
have been collected with a passion for the last 25 years, we anticipate many other types of varieties becoming
popular. Die errors such as broken dies ( Cuds), rotated reverses, and abraded dies will also come under
one umbrella as a part of the new CONECA numbering system. Each will have its own Variety/Type
number. In short, any die variety and/or die error can and eventually will be cataloged. Variety collectors,
regardless of what they collect, will be able to have a unique sequential number assigned to their varieties.

This is an excerpt I found in the Jefferson RPM Nickel Book by Dr. James Wiles. It is this, and the addition of Die Breaks on Cuds On Coins,as announced by our fellow member Mr. B j Neff, that allows me to believe my coin and other interesting types of errors are changing from "barely collectable" to highly collectable with value. I think I'll hang on to this Abraded Die Error.
