I'd be interested in comments about this one.
Could this be mint sport ?
PCGS says "Struck-Through Obv/Rev"
TIA.

It's hard to imagine that happening just by accident. One side, maybe. Both sides? Never.

I think PCGS is wrong in attributing it to mint error. Looks like PMD to me. I don't think you'd see the ear underneath the damage that clearly for a strikethrough.

Not entirely sure what would cause this kind of damage, but I'd reckon it's been branded. On both sides.
