I wonder if it's an overdate.

Send it to APCGS, I think they would grade it about VG-2, there is at least one pearl clearly visible.

I found many of those "type" coins whilst metal detecting near water, fresh water that is.   Salt water leaves a heavy crust over the coin.   Fresh water leaves marks just that example given above.

I'd throw that one away unless someone wants to pay for the packaging and postage..................................
