Note the shape. It looks like a struck through rim burr.   Note the same shapes? These are from a rim burr of a previous coin on to the strike of your coin. That is what I'm seeing on your coin. These will probably happen more often on the zinc cents, because of the softer/weaker planchets of zinc. Is that what your seeing?

IMO, if it is incuse, with those marks inside it is a PMD.

A struck through will be incuse. The weight will be normal for you coin. Before it fell of the coin, the wight was normal+ at the time of strike. Since it has fallen off, then it is back to normal weight.

Coop hit it spot on struck thru rim burr Okay that 2014 tho you posted coop is awesome huge. ( I thoguht mine was big compared to some of the other I found) The marks on the inside Silvioso that you see are from the date that you can still see bc with a strike thru you'll still see some devices faintly ofc. Coins a bit circulated.

Now I think I've been mistaking these for PMD.

My first thought was struck through a rim burr before I continued to read the responses. Nice and 2x2 worthy.What does the rest of the coin look like front and back? John1

Very nice gorham, I wish you had shown that rim photo along with the date photo you put up first. Along with it being incused or not. This information certainly helps out a TON. I'm not that good at 'Guess what I have with minimal clues' games.

I didn't include the rim pic in the original post Bc I wanted to see what all your thoughts would be on the strike thru and what caused it. Already knew what it was Yeah I could've said more about it haha I didn't wanna give away to much tho

Really interesting thread.
Why is the area immediately surrounding the rim burr (by IN) slightly raised?
I would expect this to be flat since the rim gutter would have struck this area.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Quote: . Why is the area immediately surrounding the rim burr (by IN) slightly raised? I'm not sure what you are referring too. It's is rather interesting I wonder how it would've occurred going into the striking chamber. With this strike thru all of them I've seen also have that rim copper plating gone and it's been struck thru it. Some bigger and smaller then others. I put it on cointalk idky it got controversial Fred Weinberg even replied someone tagged him he was stumped. Simple struck thru of the copper plating on the rim tho. Even minor as it is still great and brings conversation to the error side of the hobby.
