Looks like normal wear to me, were devices are flattened while in circulation. Can we see a picture of the full coin face?

I am not skilled at looking at upside down photos!

But that is neat!

The split at the top end of the 9 (or in the case of your upside down photos, the bottom ) it a tell-tale sign.

Here's one I found a couple of days ago for comparison: https://goccf.com/t/258306

Congratulations, would love to see the full obverse!

I was skeptical about this one being anything outside of normal wear. BUT......the left side of the "R" in "liberty" seems to be a dead on match to the thread Sudz mentioned.
