Looks like it was brushed with a paintbrush, Or writing your name in wet cement. The "Ty" in liberty are almost wiped clean.

I know the coin is in rough shape. So I'd just like to know if the damage is done while it was mint or after. Thanks y'all.

PMD. There is no way that could happen when the coin was struck.

Just one of those marks make this coin into a cull coin. Just a spender.
