No errors here. I'm thinking that it's from years of circulation and being encased.

Is the Obverse higher in the center and lower on the sides?

This coin is encased and has environmental damage. There are no errors here.

Agree with all above. The coin shows much wear, and also evidence of being 'worked' in preparation for encasement.

a damaged coin, however, I cannot see with you mean by 'lower in center', do you mean that the coin is concave? and if so, is the obverse convex?
