Pete41 Valued Member United States 261 Posts	Posted 02/29/2016 11:08 am Ran across this one on ebay. Any thoughts on what might have caused it. Listed as "Very Rare" of course. 291696322597 Report this Post to the Staff

Biedercoins Pillar of the Community United States 1602 Posts	Posted 02/29/2016 11:25 am It's a STABWOS. Struck Through A Big Wad Of Something. Sorry, couldn't resist. In essence, though, that is probably close to the reason for the blocked strike. I'm guessing something was on the anvil die or it was a bad planchet. But I'd go for the former. Our experts may be more knowledgeable about such an extreme case. Report this Post to the Staff

Pete41 Valued Member United States 261 Posts	Posted 02/29/2016 11:38 am I like that Biedercoins. STABWOS. Looks too crisp though for a strikethrough. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/29/2016 11:39 am Lists as a political collectible. Closer to a politically incorrect, I would say. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/29/2016 11:46 am Note how the devices widen in that area? That is an indication of a Struck Through Grease. When the devices get smaller, then it is a case of a reduced die. Not a die variety. The die when it was new was complete. Report this Post to the Staff
