This coin looks like it was struck through a staple over the "5" of date.

Please see photos.

I'm thinking a post-strike dig/hit taken in circulation. Seeing moved metal.

Those marks appear raised, a Struck Through would be incuse.
Probably displaced metal from taking a hit.

Looks more like a hit that pushed the metal around. PMD.
