Very neat, it would be my first struck through anything find, I'll have to give this coin a better look when I get home, I can't tell from my pictures I didn't inspect the rest of the coin, bout it looks like there may also be a possible doubled die on the reverse to the right of the Lincoln, either way if it's a true struck through I'll be happy. @john1 thanks for your opinion. Unfortunately it looks like some corrosive green, I'll have to give it an acetone soak as well. I kind of wish I found it on a copper cent rather then a zinclon.

Does not look like a huge market for these strike through errors, what do you think it would be valued? (Considering it's rough shape)
Edit:and assume for now there is no doubled die reverse,that would be a little bonus.

Looks more like contact with another coin. Note the metal splash away and making it higher than the fields.

I would say less than $2 and I see no doubled die. John1 Edited by John1

@coop, I don't see any displaced metal from a strike in either photo, zoomed in there is some plating missing around where it happened but no metal pushed up at all from what I see
@john1 if you zoom in on Lincolns right arm(or I guess his left) but the right side of his arm looks to have extra metal, though I wouldn't be able to tell without my scope if it's anything or just light refraction.

I agree with coop, it seems like there is displaced metal, meaning it is not struck through.

Where to you guys see displaced metal? I'm not seeing it. I'll get a shot of the specific spot at different angles. But zoom in on the two angles I took I think what you might be seeing is simply dirt inside the mark or light refraction on the far left?

Should I post some different angles with different lighting? I don't see any metal pushed up around it at all, I asked for specific spots where you see dispersed metal so I could get the lighting and angle specific

The way you have the lighting in the closeup photo gives a false impression that there is pushed up metal. Definitely a strike through

How can it be a 'rim burr' when it is so far away from the rim? However I think it is a strike from another coin for now - at least until a rim burr is explained to me (I don't know that one)  |

@dearborn, if you look at the image from my scope, you can see that the areas you pointed out in your photo as extra metal pushed up are actually incuse areas(at least that's what I can see.
