It would seem that the article describes quite well what I was 'trying' to explain. but showed it with the other topic that had a rim burr on it.

Sil, what the OP has here is a struck through. What you are showing is similar but different. It occurs at a different time, earlier in the "coins" life. They not only look different, they are different. Read the complete descriptions of each and when they occur. Link to what you were referring too. https://www.error-ref.com/_blanking_burr_/ Link to what the OP has. https://www.error-ref.com/struck-th...t__shavings/ A rim burr and a blanking burr (rolling fold), are two different animals. -makecents-

Make, me I reffere to a term someone here use as Rim Burr, and I contradicted it is. Strike trough? I do not go on this topic, even majority of strike trough show incuse, but do not mean could not be. For me here the term Rim Burr it is inappropriate, point.

I am reasonably certain that God actually liked Abe !
So I find this stab (strike though error), in the back of his head somewhat incongruous.

Not a PSD,Post Strike Damage. Looks like a real nice struck through rim burr. For sure 2x2 worthy. Use the search box upper left of page for more info. I think I have posted one or two over the years myself. John1  |

 It sure looks like it's been struck through a detached rim burr AKA: blanking burr.  Here a link to a 1974 Washington quarter that still has the rim burr attached. The area under the burr in incuse and has the same shape as the burr. The burr is copper on the exposed side and shows as clad on the other. http://goccf.com/t/357625 ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

@Silviosi thanks for the link on rolling folds - that actually helped me finally identify two coins that I thought were just peculiar retained strike throughs

your full coin images are not bad, but could be better (and larger) for us to see more details. Please try to crop the pictures almost to the coins edge.

So it is struck thru.
But not a rim burr tho.
As if it were a rim burr extra metal of the rim the place it came from would be copper plated as the rim burr is apparent when the blank is still zinc.
If you try and find on this coin you lll see a piece of the rim gone and zinc. So not a rim burr but a defective part of the proto rim and when it enters the striking chamber it gets knicked off and struck thru.
Hopefully that makes sense but I'll say it again lol
The rim burr if it was that the piece missing on the rim would be plated copper as the rim burr is extra metal when the blank is zinc and not yet coated with copper
