arby96 Pillar of the Community United States 2083 Posts	Posted 04/23/2025 01:06 am Hello Everyone, I pulled this 2019 West Point American Memorial Quarter while Coin Roll Hunting (CRH). It appears it could be a strikethrough error or something else. It feels raised except for the very top of the anomaly. So maybe not a strikethrough, maybe something on the die its self? Maybe its just a bad planchet? Please let me know what you think. "LOVE THE HUNT!" Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 32968 Posts	Posted 04/23/2025 06:18 am Well if it is raised, then it definitely isn't a strike-through. It might be a bit of dried adhesive or the like. Pls give this coin a bath in pure acetone then air dry to see if the anomaly separates from the coin.

arby96 Pillar of the Community United States 2083 Posts	Posted 04/23/2025 10:54 am Thanks Spence, its not dried adhesive, its had its acid tone bath and its still there. When I use my finger nail I can feel it bump across the anomaly but I cannot tell if its raised or not. its so tiny. I know its not a big issue just tying to figure out what caused it. I can tell you for sure it is not any kind of glue/adhesive or tape. Plus being on a West Point Quarter it would be nice to be a true error. Just not sure on this one. "LOVE THE HUNT!"
