what is the horizontal mark to the left of the date; is this part of the coin's design, or a cut/abrasion of some sort?

thanks!

    Looks like part of the design to me. See the ones above the date, through the 1 and through the U as well.

    Part of the design. Look at one from Heritage.

    They look like leaves. The canal was built through the jungle.
