Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 7:18 pm Retained struck-through sounds right, John. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74876 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 8:12 pm My vote is Die Crack, since it's connected to the rim. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 8:29 pm If a die crack, that would be nice. But my first thought was struck through a piece of scrap or something. Cracks don't usually follow a straight line. Two questions, does it wrap around the edge? Also curious if it responds to a magnet? Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19221 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 8:31 pm I'm on board with die crack. Nice. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97793 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 9:20 pm appears to be a crack. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

jpsi Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 9:24 pm Thanks all! There's no response with the magnet and the line tapers into the rim but does not wrap. Including a close-up image. Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 9:38 pm Thanks, the cracks may have it then. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
jpsi Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 10:52 pm Appreciate the questions, Doug. Helps me to learn what to consider. Report this Post to the Staff
SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 11:16 pm Definitely not a retained strike through. Just a nice die crack. Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25542 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 11:23 pm Seems somewhat thick and straight for a die crack, especially over the devices. Struck-through seems to be a better explanation. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 11:59 pm You guys are way over-thinking this. It's just a thick die crack. A strike through wouldn't be so raised, and it has the classic lumpy shape of a die break. Edited by SamCoin 09/02/2023 12:01 am Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 09/02/2023 5:59 pm For the life of me I can't remember. Did I think about walking and then walked or did I learn to walk without thinking? Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
