I haven't found a struct through a die cap but maybe this is one. What's neat is it is struct through something on the reverse as well. Am I correct with my attribution ? Thanks for looking.

Interesting coin. (Reverse is a lamination problem.) - guess that can't be, it's a zincoln.
Oh yeah, just noticed small die cracks in both corners of the Memorial base. Nice find!
Did you know that dolphins are so smart that within a few days of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish? Working on a Dansco 8167 Kennedy half album while waiting for the 8166's to become back in stock. Edited by Mark1959

It does look like it was struck through a late stage die cap, it's nice that the date is readable, definitely a plus in terms of value.
I agree with Mark's conclusion that the reverse has a lamination flaw, it probably wont have a significant effect on the coin's value one way or the other though.
All in all a very nice find and an interesting coin!

Thanks folks. I was hoping it was struct through a die cap. First one I've found. Will tuck it away in an air tight.

That's even better then! I didn't see the second one at first. Man, this coin is a complete mess, but in a good way of course!   Errers and Varietys

It was probably a rolling indentation rather than a lamination

I'm not seeing a lamination on reverse, not that crisscross on right base. That looks like a struck through debris(horizontal) but the vertical indention looks me PSD of some sort. |

Looks more like a struck through to me. Beings that zinc cents don't have lamination issues. Peeled plating struck through. But this is not a struck through foil. It is a lot stronger than foil.

Ya, with a die cap struck through debris seems more likely.

As certain others have concluded, the obverse was struck through a late-stage die cap while the reverse shows two overlapping struck-through errors.
