1776 - 1976 Kennedy Half Dollar

I picked up 7 rolls of half dollars from the bank and a few have minor issues, but I was wondering about one inparticular.

On the back is says "200 years of freedom," but the "y" in years is very, very weak struck, almost invisible. So it looks like "20 ears of freedom."

Just over polished dies? A weak strike? Or nothing at all?

There are a couple of other weak letters, could be over polishing or more likely a grease/debris filled die

 

Thank you expat,

Much appreciated.

 

I think @expat hit the nail on the head.
