I see a coin that looks like it was Struck Through Grease causing some details to be weak or not there at all. Report this Post to the Staff

cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 02/18/2017 5:31 pm to the forum! It's not a struck through die cap error, or a doubled die, or even a rotated double struck. It is a struck through debris error, sometimes called Struck Through Grease error. The definition of a doubled die is a die that has the coin's image pressed into it twice, so that every coin made with that die will show the same doubled image. This coin has fully formed rims, so that rules out a weak strike, also a struck through die cap won't show sharp rims like this. A rotated double strike will show two separate images of the devices rotated. Edited by cwb 02/18/2017 5:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 02/18/2017 8:34 pm I'm on the fence with this one in more ways than two. Weight if possible may help shed or eliminate some light? Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/18/2017 9:32 pm If it were a struck through a capped die, then the rims would not be squared like we see on this coin. They tend to dish outwards on the struck through die caps. Note the inside edge of the rim? It is not squared, but slowly curves. Because the edge of the die that forms the rim is covered, it prevents that square inside corner. Makes it swoop from the field to the rim. Report this Post to the Staff

Your coin doesn't actually look like that, right? Also, you don't really have 0 posts, right? Edited by CoinMasters 02/18/2017 11:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
