Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73849 Posts	Posted 09/25/2018 12:47 pm I found this in a circulated bankroll, from a bank box of U.S. Pennies. I gave this one a soak in Acetone, and the silvery stuff didn't come off. Is this some type of Retained Struck Through? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73849 Posts	Posted 09/25/2018 4:25 pm Thank you GrapeCollects and Crazyb0! I'm going to see if it will come off. I'll upload a new picture, if I'm able to get it off. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73849 Posts	Posted 09/25/2018 6:21 pm Mark, good suggestion! I'll try that right now. I did it, and it ended up being stuck tin foil with glue underneath it. In the end, I still got a nice "BIE" Die Chip. Errers and Varietys.
