Looks like a Grease Filled Die. Slight premium I would think.

Yes looks like grease in the die caused some of the design to not be fully struck. Nice pick-up!

I agree with above, it's the first one for me to see that area of grease filled struck. I do think it does carry a small premium above the face value. Good catch.
