Hi, not sure what is up with this quarter, is it simply a worn die or combo of that with Grease Filled Dies or possible struck through - especially around the head (look between the back of the head and the IN). The P mm is barely visible, IGWT in some spots is strong and then some of the other letters barely visible. The front of the bust is showing die abrasions? Hardly any details behind the neck and the bottom of the pony tail. It has that frosty kind satin type of appearance.

The die that struck your coin is showing a lot of die wear. (leaving flow lines in front of the face. There is a combination of MD and a Struck Through Grease issue with your coin on the motto. The reverse looks like it was a newer die than the obverse. No premium for any of this though. (just nice to know what it all is though)

Thank you coop. Yes, big thing for me is learning to identify what these unusual ones are especially when there are a few different things going on with coin.
