oldmike Pillar of the Community Canada 891 Posts	Posted 04/11/2022 5:54 pm Maybe I am confused (and old) but how does a strike through anything happen before the strike , in this case the shaving would be on the planchet before the strike , and the gouge would be created during the strike ,not before Edited by oldmike 04/11/2022 5:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5596 Posts	Posted 04/11/2022 6:31 pm To me still, it is post mint. If there were little slivers or danglers at the end of the gouge, the strike would have plastered them into the field. I still say post mint. Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10464 Posts	Posted 04/11/2022 8:36 pm No Bill, it is not. It is a strike-through error. Struck through a bronze filament, which is partially retained (these tend not to bond). I can bring a few examples with me at the next coin show we are all together.

TerryT Pillar of the Community Canada 823 Posts	Posted 04/12/2022 01:21 am You're right oldmike, I made no sense. I guess I got sidetracked with okie's comment about a scratch causing the extra metal and only looked at that. I've asked that my two dumb posts be deleted. Of course a piece of metal from swomewhere else caused the mark. Edited by TerryT 04/12/2022 06:42 am Report this Post to the Staff

Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 04/12/2022 12:10 pm So the two pieces that were confusing me were a retained part of the struck through then? I have no experience with metal work, I would have though copper wire would have essentially fused with the coin as well but the rest makes sense and it most definitely has the appearance of a stuck through even with the photos provided.
