Yeah, the devices appear reduced and there's no notching. With a loupe, the mm almost looks partially plugged ... can't capture it very well with the camera though.

I agree. On LIBERTY you can see the machine damage after the strike reducing the devices. It appears the die was polished with a wire brush leaving deeper scratches on some of the shallow devices. The mint mark shows some damage punch damage. So other than a nice coin, it is from a normal die.
