Seems to me, if it were a strike thru, the area between the columns would show the distortion since this is the higher point on the die.

Just a dumb counterstamp push-through.

So the abrasion is from the counter stamp?

The flattening of the obverse made that impression from what it was hammered against to put the counter stamp on the other side. IE if it was done on sandpaper, then the grains would leave a mark. If if it were on a file, then the lines would show on the reverse. This looks like it was done on concrete for your coin.
