I picked this one up really cheap at the Bell auction (Coin Expo). I think the PCGS description (and subsequent auction description) deterred folks from bidding on this one. Once I saw it in hand in the auction viewing - I loved it. Click on the auction photos.

Technically, this is a strike through, but it was struck by a hammer (reverse) die cap, with mirror brockage. The PCGS label is not wrong, just horribly non-specific. I am going to try and get this one re-holdered.

And thats what you have to pay an extra $50 for. Just terrible. But as you say: it worked toward your advantage.
