Does this look like a possible grease-filled die error on the reverse? I don't think it is just a weak strike. To me, the rest of the details look to distinct to blame it just on ordinary wear. I don't think it is worth anything and will probably just spend it eventually. What do youse guys think?

Just looks like circulation wear.
Notice lack of detail in Kennedys hair from wear.
