Struck Through Grease.. right?

[ShinyPackRat]

I have described a whole bunch of coins in the past as being "struck through grease". One by one, they have all been concluded to be other things (mostly damage).
Is this one the real deal? The reverse is full and looks normal to my eyes. If I catch the light just right, the date barely shows up and looks to be 2000 or '06 or '08.

On a different note, I wanted to thank everybody here that has been helping me learn how to identify these things better and gain experience. The community here on T-net is absolutely amazing. I remember not too long ago virtually everything I laid eyes on was an error of some sort or other

That is quite interesting.....I have been given several sites that help with the identification of error coins. error-ref.com is a good one. I will let the expert coin guys answer this one but I find it quite interesting.

Would you mind posting a picture of the reverse? I'm pretty sure that is a nice greaser there.. though I can always be wrong. If it is a greased die error its worth in the $2-20 range.

As requested, with closeups of 'Liberty' and the date thrown in. They're there... barely. (lighting isn't as good as it is at night, sorry)
The obvious somewhat large corrosion/damage spots on the obverse are a bit unfortunate, though.

Other than being a greaser, the only thing I can easily see is that it is a Zincoln. The visible plating issues may decrease value.

Time for more coffee.
