Fatigue, worn die, struck-through? What do you think?
Received this yesterday in change at the local coffee shop.

On the contrary, Google is not your friend.

    Kinda looks like it had a trip thru the washer and dryer. Thanks 🙏

    Looks like a partial Grease Filled Die.

    Was the coffee shop more of a greasy spoon diner? :p

    Nice grease struck thru.

    It does appear to be a grease filled die, followed by subsequent circulation wear. Cheers, RickO
