The 4 looks like scratches or well placed dings, but it is not "tripled". If it was tripled, the are inside the 4 would also show signs. For one the opening would be MUCH smaller.

You might want to take a cactus spine or a hawthorn and remove some of the crud around the 4 - it is hard to see, what you are seeing...

Awfully curved for a four. It should be straighter I think. I'm voting it took a well placed hit.

On a circulated coin, it is pretty difficult to determine what exactly you are seeing...

Don't bother with grading, it so hard to see without a glass, what would you pay for a coin like this?

Domys and rocky, I'm curious how you figure the straight edge of the vertical bar of a "4" can become curved?
