Good example of struck through, probably thread. A fairly common occurrence in the 1960s.

PMD, the metal was scraped towards the bottom resulting in a ball/clump of excess silver.

I would scrap it, actually I would sell it to a dealer who I knew would melt it. that way it doesn't get found by some one one day and sold to a less educated collector as a major strike through error for a couple hundred bucks.

The problem is that I do not sold any of my silver coins, just add the more "Interesting" in a flip along with the good value.
