 There wouldn't be a raised ridge showing along the mark of it was struck through. Sorry but just damage. |

If it is a scratch, it will be incuse on the coin. If it is raised, then it might be a die crack. Can't tell for sure from the image provided.

Dang. Ok so what ever is laying in the scratch looks like wire, broken glass fiber ah never mind. Ok I am going and getting me one of those cg cameras. That way I can get the good pics. This phone ain't cutting it. Thanks again y'all give me a bit and I will post the next item. Got me scratching my head because I never felt with something like it.

A struck through I thought can leave the debris in the coin sometimes.

A struck through won't have a raised edge on either side of the incuse area. A scratch will have raised areas (think of a tractor plowing a field).

A scratch for sure--looks like someone cut the surface with a knife or sharp blade.

Thanks for the extra images. It is a coin scratch. Note there is a trench with a flat bottom on the trench. It appears to be scratched with a box knife. Note the lines flow on the bottom of the trench. Just a spender coin.

I also agree that it is a scratch.

Thank you guys. It really looks like a fiber. I never seen a scratch go around the fireworks fingers or up and curve around the flagpole. Also there appears to be something in between the two fireworks where the scratch split towards the F in Fort and the flagpole. And in certain spottsbthe scratch is filled and raises over the flag pole. You say it's a crack coop then I'm going to go get a soda with it of course. But there are parties that are raised and not icused. I'm done with these phone photos. Also coop I have a coin that I think needs to be looked at professionally. Any suggestions? I have no problem paying for it and I'm sending this one with it lol. Drop me a email if you could. Thanks all. Majority rules. It's a scratch.

This image might help you visualize what we're saying. Here's one of your images where I've added arrows to show you the raised areas adjacent to the scratch. A struck through error won't have these raised ridges. The surface of the die keeps these ridges from forming.  Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
