This is a funny one, and yet a pretty nice Struck through foreign object( I think maybe a piece of wire). SMS 25c from mint set.

It is incuse, it is a very reflective coin was not easy to show the depth in the struck through area but I managed to show the trail of it on the lower Lip, best seen in the first top image.
Here is a different shot.
