Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/25/2023 10:27 am It sure looks like it's been struck through a detached rim burr AKA: blanking burr. Here a link to a 1974 Washington quarter that still has the rim burr attached. The area under the burr in incuse and has the same shape as the burr. The burr is copper on the exposed side and shows as clad on the other. http://goccf.com/t/357625 ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 99230 Posts	Posted 07/25/2023 4:05 pm your full coin images are not bad, but could be better (and larger) for us to see more details. Please try to crop the pictures almost to the coins edge. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

gorham_collector Valued Member United States 426 Posts	Posted 07/25/2023 7:58 pm So it is struck thru. But not a rim burr tho. As if it were a rim burr extra metal of the rim the place it came from would be copper plated as the rim burr is apparent when the blank is still zinc. If you try and find on this coin you lll see a piece of the rim gone and zinc. So not a rim burr but a defective part of the proto rim and when it enters the striking chamber it gets knicked off and struck thru. Hopefully that makes sense but I'll say it again lol The rim burr if it was that the piece missing on the rim would be plated copper as the rim burr is extra metal when the blank is zinc and not yet coated with copper Report this Post to the Staff
