Does the reverse look like it's Struck Through Grease to you guys, or uneven wear? I usually nail these but I'm stuck on this one. Probably because I want to ask a Canadian

The reverse on the NL coins were very prone to wear (concave perhaps, not certain) ... that is typical wear.

I would think the reverse die was not evenly flat- there is definately more wear than there should be on certain of the letters. The obverse seems somewhat protected- more detail than I would expect with the amount of wear on the reverse.
