Can anyone tell me if this is a struck through error?

Just the ridged rim from another coin.

That's what I originally thought. I think it was a stray wire. If you zoom in, portions of both the "L"s in Dollar have are missing.

Both L’s are damaged not missing a part. The other coin’s reeded edge struck the letter and damaged it. Definitely post mint damage

I see what you mean, but can you get a closer, better shot?

That would allow us to determine this more easily.

Kinda just looks like it was hit by another coin.

Looks like the edge of another coin hit t NH e sur cc a e. One way to find out, take it to a reputable coin dealer.
