The reverse looks more like post mint damage to me. The wear on the neck seems odd. Could it be due to a worn die?

The obverse is interesting, I don't know what that is! Looks like it could be die damage, but certainly not related to anything on the reverse. Definitely worth a second look from someone else.
The reverse is either a struck through or lamination which detatched while the coin was still circulating.

I always enjoy looking at strike throughs to try and figure out what the object was. My favorite strke throughs are staples. The staple would be imbedded in the coin and turn into turn into rust after a while in circulation.

Edit: By the way I forgot to mention I think its a strike through. The reason I say that because you can tell it was some type of object based on the shape on the indention.

I agree with you on the struck through Cud Wild, it's just tough to know for sure under the circulation, 85 years ago we would have known.
Rest in Peace
