I believe this is what would be called struck through ?
Found this CRH, CAM design.

First off, 1993-2008 is CAM territory, and that's not a capped die, just very grease filled. Capped die wouldn't have a rim. But that IS the worst "greezer" () I have ever seen! Never seen the bust that distorted, no outer devices or date yes, but...that's a keeper!

Too bad it's not visible, but if it were a 1992 then

It actually looks like a "struck-through die cap" to me. It could be a heavy Greaser, but I'm leaning toward the first.

Either way, it's a definite keeper!

It was struck through a late-stage die cap.

Not a die cap and not a Greaser. What cwb said is correct.

I agree. Note the areas next to the rim. They are not the normal shape for a normal coin. If this were a Struck Through Grease the rims would likely be normal.

This one shows the flaring that a struck through a die cap would leave the rim looking like. (rounded over because the die has a cap over it)

Note how the edge of the rim is beveled on the above images?
