I found this CRH and was wondering if it's a Struck Through error. I thought it was a counterstamp at first, but the reverse side wasn't affected. I think this might be a Struck Through, but I'm not sure.

Your first pic really shows a rim ding in the same location, wondering if just damage of sorts. But it doesn't look like any metal is piled up at edges, so is good indicator of a stuckthru debris.

Thank you for the fast response. It is a little bit beat up and shows a lot of dings and pings. My thought was a Struck Through. :)

It's pretty clean so I think there's a good probability it was struck through debris. I'll wait to see what others say, though.

To me it looks like a post mint damage.

Thank you everyone for your thoughts. Coop said it's Struck Through Wire. It does show a lot of PMD as it had a rough life in circulation. Coop, you have my permission if you would like to use my images to make a demonstration for your learning files.

Looks legit to me, just camouflaged by some of the other damage on the coin. Good eyes.
