This lettering looks a bit weird don't you think ? Kinda looks like there's a B under the I . And the I is already very faint. This picture makes it look a little more prominent than it really is. Thoughts ? Explanations? Thank you

Greaser? Quick-hit circulation damage?

Looks most like damage to me, but for sure it could have been grease in the die.

Perhaps damage, but thinking grease filled matter. As always, what does the reverse look like? Wheat cent reverses are known for interesting things.

It's either a grease filled issue or circulation post mint damage. Either way is not a plus for collectibility. Spend it.
