nss-52 Moderator United States 54282 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 11:13 am 1) How common is it for coins to be Struck Through Grease? Does the mint use that much grease? 2) How can one determine when a coin has actually been Struck Through Grease, or some other cause? Example: 322007007000 Show your financial support of the Coin Community Family (click here) See my topic on Mexican Numismatic Medals (click here) Report this Post to the Staff

Slamnbass Pillar of the Community United States 3644 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 11:49 am I think this may be a struck through error but not Grease. Up by e pluribus looks like grease but in the center of the coin I can see a depression? Wait for others to chime in. Edited by Slamnbass 02/14/2016 11:54 am Report this Post to the Staff

One would have to ask the seller, since it was not mentioned in the listing ( ebay item number in original post).

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 4:07 pm Obverse is kind of a shotgun blast of nicks. Current ebay so no idea on weight. Looks like an awful lot of reverse problems for a Grease Fill. Report this Post to the Staff
Coincollector110 Pillar of the Community United States 818 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 4:41 pm I see those a lot, but I usually just throw them back. I'm not actually sure how much they're worth, but you guys might know better. Report this Post to the Staff
mdrosophila Pillar of the Community United States 724 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 4:55 pm It is grease. I have a truck through cap example. It is entirely different. Basically, it has some blur image from both sides of coins. Report this Post to the Staff
