It appears struck thru on both sides,I believe. My question is, stuck thru what and how would I know? What am I looking for or at? Mahalo for your wisdom and for entertaining my inquiry.. I look forward to your responses. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 07/05/2020 06:35 am Sorry but rather than struck through, I rather think that the surface roughness can be attributable to environmental or chemical exposure.

Note a premium coin. A premium coin would be one with a great strike and in great condition. Yours is just damaged. Here is what a nice example would look like: https://www.PCGS.com/cert/25614492 Note the value on the last line of the evaluation of the coins summary? Report this Post to the Staff
