Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 05/08/2021 09:29 am Found this 2015 P LSC and I am leaning heavily towards a strike thru as there is no evidence of this indentation on the reverse. I also think it may have been something softer than metal that entered the striking chamber as you can see traces of the word IN. Thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 05/08/2021 11:07 am Leaning toward PSD since I see some raised metal on the right side and the rim. That would also explain the traces of letters in the cavity. I'd like to be wrong. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/08/2021 11:14 am Struck through a rim bur from another coin. The weight on your coin should be normal? A rim edge broke off another coin and was left in the chamber, and got struck through the next coin through, which was your coin. CoopHome: What is a rim bur?

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 05/08/2021 11:36 am @numisma I have noticed slight lips like this on other struck through zinc cents. I think it may be caused by the struck through material exiting the coin. You don't see it on copper cents because the planchet is a single material, but with zinc cents, the copper coating gets pulled away from the zinc as the struck through object exits like a bit of foil (just my interpretation. I'd be interested to hear what more knowledgeable people think). Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/08/2021 11:48 am If there is no push out on the reverse, it might be a rough edge where it broke off the other coin. This is not a wave, but an incuse line on that area from the rim bur. If it were damage it would have pushed out the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/08/2021 2:07 pm Only if they look at the Photo badge. Thanks for posting it John1. I don't remember why I chose that image for your badge right now though? I've made hundreds of these. I have thousands yet to be used though. So I'm never going to run out of these. I use the individual images as screen saver images in 3-D. I just checked my image count for that screen, over 5.5K images. They are small 250 pixels square. Put together on my monitor, 48 images of the same image, makes a nice 3-D affect. Kind of like this, but the images are all the same depth: Probably no one uses the screen save on their computers any more, but I like them as they look cool. Report this Post to the Staff
