Or, you know, it could be a fake.

 That is someone really messing up what probably used to be a relatively nice coin.

I'd venture that this was a shoddy attempt to erase graffiti. The coin looks genuine to me.

I'd agree with someones very poor attempt to "erase" graffiti.
Looks fully original other than that.

I think they are right. Someone tried to erase something.

Not interested in this piece but what value would you guys place on this coin? I'd think $30 at most.
Is it just me or does the neck/eagle area seem to be unusually large on this coin? Seems stretched.

Coin 100% genuine, field repaired. I forgot to look at the obverse to see if it was plugged so I won't bother.
