dmg1969 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 10/28/2022 8:32 pm I was going through my collection and came across this Lincoln Cent that I pulled from a bank wrapped roll a number of years ago. I believe it is was struck through heavy grease, but would welcome other opinions. Dave Edited by dmg1969 10/28/2022 8:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff

dmg1969 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 10/28/2022 11:01 pm @Spence, unfortunately, I do not have a scale that measures in grams. I have one that I use for candlemaking, but that measures in increments of .10 oz. Assuming it would weigh in spec, which I'm sure it would, would that degree of a grease strike command a premium. Or is it more of a fun find and keep it in my collection? Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/29/2022 03:53 am Nice Struck Through Grease. Check ebay sold values for an idea on value.Put it in a 2x2 holder. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34413 Posts	Posted 10/29/2022 05:34 am Yes worth setting aside in a 2x2 until you purchase an appropriate balance. The rims are intact and it looks like Struck Through Grease, but always good to confirm that weight.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/29/2022 2:02 pm The first clue for a Struck Through Grease error, it the wider devices. The upper devices didn't for because of the Grease Fill on the die: I would save this one. There may be a premium for it to the buyer. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 10/29/2022 9:27 pm to the CCF That is a nice one. Ck ebay for price. I would think it's a 10-to-20-dollar coin? Report this Post to the Staff
dmg1969 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 11/09/2022 7:56 pm I wanted to update this thread. I did buy a gram scale and the coin weighs in at 2.48 grams. I will also post a few better pics of the coin out of the 2x2. Dave Report this Post to the Staff
