This is the first one I have seen. Looks like a struck through obstruction error. Opinions?

Best way to check for a Grease Fill is to note the devices. If the devices appear wider than normal and flat looking, then the incuse area of the die was filled, only allowing the base of the devices to show:  Depending on the fill, the devices will only show the base of the tapered devices. (the widest part of the devices are close to the fields) If the devices were not tapered, then coin would not release after the strike. Thus the taper affect on the dies devices. CoopHome: Why are devices tapered and thinner on the tops of the devices? to release from the coins after the strike.

yes, struck through a thin layer of grease, nice example but not missing enough to be worth a premium

Can you post a pic of the edge. I would like to rule out a dryer coin? John1
