Not sure if it's part of a number and strike through? Above GOD?

to the CCF! If you could please take a clear closeup pic of that area. It will help us see what you're seeing.

It looks like it has taken a hit from a coin with a reeded edge like a quarter. If you could, take a clear closeup pic of the word GOD as well as the rim. That is the interesting area.

It's just damage in both areas.

Thanks for taking the time to look, I will have to work on getting better close-ups.

@kb50, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree with @jim0815 that this coin is just showing wear from circulation (including that hit from the edge of a quarter or half dollar on Lincoln's shoulder). This coin is only worth face value.
