What would make the obverse of this coin wear in this pattern?

Surprised that it straight graded, but I am not a lowball expert.
the wear pattern is not off. The black stain could have been caused by rubber band or leather?
I don't know, but those digs on the reverse sure are distracting!

Don't get the toning pattern confused with the wear pattern.

True, but the reverse has no detail at all, yet the obverse has a lot more detail.

Not sure why this is the case but the obverse design may have had a higher relief or maybe a higher rim or both.

Or some other dollar coins laying on it over time

The seller calls it a "millennial issue" , what makes it millennial? Was it issued in 1000 AD or 2000 AD? Am i just stupid for wondering?
how would you ever know if this is a high quality fake worn down. With the high quality fakes out there I would be very afraid
I simply do not see the attraction to low ball coins.... Of course, we each are entitled to collect what interests us... I am not disparaging this area of interest.... Just my personal opinion. I will say that these super worn coins have very little tarnish though...
