I think this might be a good post to start of any Greaser coins you find to post them here. There sure are lots of them and this would be good to keep them all together. I will start with this cool 1998 Canadian 1 cent with the grease still on the coin.

Unusual 1977 5 cent coin with a large strike-through grease mark.
Probably my best one !

The coin appears unusual because some features seem doubled. Upon closer inspection of the obverse, you can see that "D.G." and some letters of Elizabeth are doubled.

This is a result of a struck through floating encrustation, which is compact grease that receive multiple strikes and shift a little bit between each of them.

I will post later few other Large Strike Through Grease I own.

Great thread @ chadcoins.
Nice greasers @chadcoins, @johnnysprawl and @SP67.

Found this 1970 one-dollar Greaser a couple years ago.
