Some of what looks like wear on the reverse was probably missing even when it was new, often the reverses on these are missing the steps and details. It's still a lower grade.

its definitely not a full strike on the reverse yet i can read everything clearly the camera just didn't pick it up it looks like it might be a weak strike but I'm not sure

The nickel in this thread is F-VF. Basically pocket change.
