Hey!
First off I'm still relatively new to this. My second time posting on here so I hope I'm doing things right.
I recently purchased this 2013 UNC. Proof like set. Noticed there is a small mark on the reverse face? I'm no expert but this is the first I have seen of this in a proof like set.
Wondering what you all think.? Is this an actual error? And is this common?
You will see the spot on right side of the coin

The beads are missing which would lead me to think that it was Struck Through Grease.

with NiNGCumpoop, looks like it was Struck Through Grease.

There is also a known DDO for 2013 that is always worth a look.

Well that's awsome!! Thank you! I'm not a collector of error coins so I'm wasn't to sure how explain the defect.
Btw this is my first error coin so there is a bit of excitement on my behalf.

It is a struck through error.
Nice find!
BTW there are no 2013 PL coins or prooflike sets, 2010 was the last year for those, since then it's just regular change in fancy packaging sold for an exorbitant price.

Thank you everyone! I've had to google more than half these terms to have an idea. Didn't realize there is so many variations on what can be considered an error.
Cheers!
