This 1980 1 cent has a distinctive dimensional RU with a flat and upper lip. Its missing the ST in TRUST with no markings at all for the ST and no ghosting of the letters. Its a genuine missing ST [ Struck Through Grease]

Nice Struck Through, usually there is some minor trace of the letter.

How do we know it is a struck through a Grease Filled Die? Note the width and weakness of the strike. The strike was normal, but the grease prevented the strike to happen on those grease filled areas. Thus why just the base of the devices appear and where the die was totally filled, then nothing shows.

The Grease Fill prevents the deepest areas of the die to be filled first. Thus the normal devices are prevented on the strike of this coin.
