Please don't do it in titles or posts. * Does anybody specialize in PF ERROR COINS? Please, tell me the absolute rarity scale designation would be for a coin like this, or any other information on PF ERROR rarity? Report this Post to the Staff

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 12:20 pm If it was struck through a cloth fiber, then it would make sense. Polishing cloths were used to polish the proof dies, and sometimes a fiber would come off and stick to the die, transfering to the first coin struck. Grease is still possible, but not as likely. Anything else would be out of the ordinary. Report this Post to the Staff
Vrsmulator7 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 1:56 pm The struck through is a 4.5mm round impression. I don't know if this helps determine whether it is due to a cloth remnant, or grease...I would think grease wouldn't leave such a symmetric pattern? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 2:22 pm I often find proof coins with what I call struck through thread issues. What do I do with them, I put them back into the tubes. Report this Post to the Staff
