Am I correct in calling this a Struck Through and Retained Error. From my digging, it seems to be either a staple or possibly a wire bristle. Either way, is this a correct attribution, and any ball park ideas on value. Deciding whether or not it would be worth sending off for grading. Thanks in advance! * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. It's very important to have in the title. * Report this Post to the Staff

Each image is clear enough, just way too small to see the detail. Try reposting each side individually sized at 800x800dpi each and then our experts can help. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff

The ridges on the reverse may be discolored copper, or It may have been sitting on some type of wire or maybe even steel wool when it was damaged on the obverse and may have picked up some of that material. There is also flattening of design details around the ridges. A strike through shouldn't show any deformity on the opposite side of the coin in most cases. Also, a strike through will not have any metal from the planchet extending above the normal surface height of the coin, with any retained material pushed into the coin. The retained material may even show details from the strike if it's large enough. I think this is just Post Mint Damage, not an error.
