We're not ignoring you, I've come back to this a few times. It's really hard to see anything in the pics, they're too dark.

You didn't really specify what it is we are looking at, but now I think you are referring to the "IN", "WE", and bottom of the date? If so, I would agree on Struck Through Grease.

What is up with the "O" in ONE on the reverse? That looks strange, could be MD or Die Deterioration, but again, pics are hard to see.

yes, I do know the pics aren't the best, and you wouldn't believe how MUCH light is on it, it's super tough on this one to get good pics.. I still have problems with all silver - check back in a couple days, maybe I will figure it out LOL

the sad part, is you can see more detail in some of the letters in these pictures than you can in hand, it looks like a really worn die to me

IN WE - bottom of date - broken tops of letters in LIBERTY - all lettering on the reverse O in one bottom of the E - A and ES in STATES - all of AMERICA just fades towards the rim

I see some areas missing on the design, so I'm going to say it's just struck thru grease/water.

There is some metal flow and signs of having been Struck Through Grease. For some reason grease promotes metal flow, at least in rare instances.
