Quote: However, I can't rule out a strike through a late-stage partial (off-center) die cap. The is where my mind went to initially. Collecting since 1972.

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2738 Posts	Posted 07/08/2023 08:41 am The clad layer would have separated from an unstruck planchet. I favor the struck-through-clad-layer scenario for two reasons. First, the strength of the ghost image is consistent with this diagnosis. Second, partial die caps seldom last long enough for a strong ghost image to bleed through. Error coin writer and researcher. Edited by mikediamond 07/08/2023 08:42 am Report this Post to the Staff
