Looking at the coin again in hand it appears that what we are seeing in the "T" is just "gunk" and not a re cutting.
What would you like a better pic of?? I can try.
Can someone help me with the variety on this one please? I'm having a trouble with it. In hand I think I'm seeing a 9 over 9 it looks shifted to...

That made me LOL!! :bow:

From those pictures I would say that that piece is not a full head. There is some weakness directly in the center of the head.
