So.. I'm honestly not sure if this is just worn out, or if it's actually a factory error. What do y'all think?

Because the coin still has some luster, my guess is that the coin Is a " Struck Through Grease" error. Some grease got between the coin and die when striking, and those details weren't struck into the coin. Could you also post a picture of the other side of the coin?

Because the rest of the coin is in such nice condition.

Struck Through Grease can cause details to be muted or entire words or areas of a coin to be missing.

I see circulation wear and as far as it's value, face.

Looks more like the coin was sanded or polished a bit. They stayed away from the rim area, trying to turn a normal coin into a so called coin error. Realized it wasn't convincing enough and just spent the coin.
