While there might have been a little grease in the die that caused the letter T to not strike up completely, it seems more likely to me that it is mechanical damage since the letter Y also looks a bit wonky.

The Y has just taken a hit.
Not an error in any way, it is PMD.

Hit or grease, either scenario is plausible as stated above.
