CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 01/22/2025 10:21 am Neat to see what these planchets look like before striking. I don't think you would call this a "before strike" error since it was never struck but rather call it a unstruck split planchet.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5767 Posts	Posted 01/22/2025 2:56 pm That's a nice one. Will and Dearborn, I was forming all kinds of questions wondering how you knew it was a colonial 1/2 cent planchet. Then it hit me. It's a "half" cent by weight not age. Got me.
