I agree with a struck through. Note how the columns and bays are affected equally. That tells me it isn't PSD. Good call guys. |

It looks like it was Struck Through Wire by the looks of it.
Errers and Varietys.

I said string just based on the left end in particular because it looked frayed like a piece of string or thread would be.
Thanks coop I am glad that you agree with Struck Through.

If it were a direct strike-through it would be like a scratch, lower than the coin's surface.
But it is raised on your coin which means the strike-through occurred prior to this coin being struck.
The strike-through damaged the die which now has the "scratch".
That resulted in subsequent coins having having a raised ridge such as yours.
Nice coin.

Sometimes fiber is also struck through on coins. From what I don't know, but I found a wad on a OBW roll one time. I called it my ugly cent.   |

Oh yeah Coop. I remember that one. It's ugly, but also cool at the same time.

Def a cool find!. Its got some size to it. @kanga, I don't think it's raised. It's def incuse. You can see how it cuts into the columns and part of the devices. I think your just seeing an optical illusion.
