@sun, without a little more detail, it is hard to know exactly what you are for potential mint errors. I see an obv which is more heavily worn than the reverse, which is a little odd, but certainly possible after the coin leaves the mint. Is there some other detail that you are seeing with the coin in hand?

Weight? That might be a start to tell what it might be? (5 grams is normal)

Certainly not an error, but agree the difference in the battering on each side is hard to figure.

Post mint damage ( PMD). Semi-parking lot coin? But not an error.

Struck Through Grease was common in 1999, I have a few that look like that

I question that because if it were grease, then the devices would be wider/taller on the most filled devices. Thus my question about weight to see if metal was removed from the coin. If so, then it is could be sanded. Also I wondered if they weight was less than normal of a possible thinned planchet? If the weight is normal then it might be a Grease Fill. So for me, the jury is still out:
