Hi All,
seen this expresion in a job: it does return the same as: I was wondering was there something I missedd regarding Iconv
or is it simply a missused syntax (that accidentaly works) ?

Thanks,

It's not a syntax I've seen in the wild, only posted here by Ray.

The Value Mark allows you to do multiple transformations without in-lining the function call repeatedly. So it is equivalent to:
However, it makes no sense to me as "MCN" is the DIGITS transform to get only numeric values from a string and the output from IConv is already a number. So this would make more sense with OConv, which is where I've typically seen it. So you are right in that it seems to fall into the "accidentally works" category.
