j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 04/12/2010 4:31 pm Do you think this is mint or post mint? I see that the "C" is still in tact and not mashed as I would expect from post-mint damage. 1938 D Edited by j_h_s 04/12/2010 4:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/12/2010 5:09 pm I think the area in question is sunk into the planchet. I'm thinking a defective planchet with a flaw in that area. Or a lamentation peel. Hard to tell for sure. Mike will probably know for sure as this is his specialty. Edited by coop 04/12/2010 5:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 04/12/2010 5:21 pm Looks like a strike through. The C is still visible. If it was post mint I believe the C would be obliterated. Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 04/14/2010 11:25 am It's struck through a small fragment of something. Not too uncommon. A defective planchet would look completely different and would not affect how the metal struck up into the die. A die chip would be raised. JimR has it right, except that "strike through" is not proper terminology...it's "struck through" - past tense. Report this Post to the Staff
