1909 S VDB "Weak VDB"?

saw this from JJ Teaparty COIN ANACS apparently noted the 'Weak VDB' on the holder. what caused this? are there others like this? by the price i assume this causes a little cut in the price. any more info would be appreciated. thanks!!!

    .........or an over polished die.

    The reverse is pretty strong to be over polishing...its weak only in the area of the V.D.B.

    I agree With ldhair ...filled die.

    Yes, they came that way sometimes. But the fun one to find are those with the weak "S".

    I've been looking closely at all of the 09-S's I can get my hands on for a little while now.
