Maybe I am confused (and old) but how does a strike through anything happen before the strike , in this case the shaving would be on the planchet before the strike , and the gouge would be created during the strike ,not before

To me still, it is post mint. If there were little slivers or danglers at the end of the gouge, the strike would have plastered them into the field. I still say post mint.

No Bill, it is not. It is a strike-through error. Struck through a bronze filament, which is partially retained (these tend not to bond).

I can bring a few examples with me at the next coin show we are all together.

You're right oldmike, I made no sense. I guess I got sidetracked with okie's comment about a scratch causing the extra metal and only looked at that. I've asked that my two dumb posts be deleted. Of course a piece of metal from swomewhere else caused the mark.

OK, Roger. My mind seems to only bend the way that I've seen stuff like that in machine shops.

So the two pieces that were confusing me were a retained part of the struck through then? I have no experience with metal work, I would have though copper wire would have essentially fused with the coin as well but the rest makes sense and it most definitely has the appearance of a stuck through even with the photos provided.
