Waynoah83 Pillar of the Community 586 Posts	Posted 06/13/2018 9:04 pm Looks like a Struck Through Grease. If that is the case that's a pretty awesome one. Sometimes the die gets some grease built up on it in a certain spot and when it strikes the coin, the grease fills in that areas and prevents the metal from flowing into the image on the die and therefore leaves a an area vois of details and/ letters and numbers. It's pretty common in certain areas and on certain coins but when it affects a large area and causes major distortion as might be your case, they can be worth more than face value.
