coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 10:43 pm I feel this is a Struck Through Grease issue and not a struck through a capped die. Why? Note the edge of the rim and the fields. Note the sharp edge on the inside near the field area? It is normal. On a struck through a capped die, that area is cupped. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 10:52 pm I'd save it as an educational piece for a new collector. A lot of new collectors now know what to look for on a capped die strike. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34450 Posts	Posted 04/27/2020 06:10 am I agree worth saving in a 2x2--there is a bunch of detail missing.
