This @Way too impossible. And not even likely. If you have to use that much magnification to see a variety it is nothing but your imagination.
One of the first things I saw was the deterioration of the 9 towards the rim. This is at least a C. And the deterioration shows it further along....
What looks like contact, is not contact marks. These planchets were extremely rough. In many instances, and especially with the early memorial...
