Yes, looks like a minor Struck Through.

I'm a little confused. I thought a die clash would show the obverse on the reverse and vice versa? Strike thru being an object on the die that gets pushed into the coin. Still learning alot so pls be patient and kind. Thanks so much yall!!

What your arrow is pointing to is a Struck Through. Maybe coop also sees a die clash somewhere but it would be raised, not incuse.

I use the overlays also for damage to a coin. If ones side of the coin is affected with a incuse mark, it will show up raised on the opposite side of the coin according to the overlay information. That is why I use them for that purpose. So the UNU area where the top of the lines of the shield are the location I was trying to see if there is a push outwards on that area. (A push outwards on the opposite area would be damage to the coin, where as not pushing outwards could be a struck through issue if nothing show there)

Looks 2x2 worthy to me. Nice find!

I am not seeing the Struck Through on the coin. Upon closer inspection (better close-ups would help), to me the coin appears to have a deep gouge, a solid hit (or two), which would make it post mint damage ( PMD). The area of overlay doesn't seem to align itself with the coin, Again, a much larger close up would be helpful.

Looks like a struck through to me. Don't see metal smashed up in any areas. Reverse seems undisturbed.

You could also check the weight of the coin. Would have to be really accurate scale for that small amount of missing material if damaged.

Finally, if that deep a gouge, would expect to see the zinc underneath exposed.
