I think that it looks more like a defective planchet than a strike-through. And yes, it looks like a collar issue too.

Partial collar strike, and possible struck through an object on both sides.

I agree with above. Cool coin!  Errers and Varietys.

Very interesting--a strikethrough/collar issue cocktail. Cool!

That's a neat looking error. Perhaps whatever was "struck through" also prevented a full collar deployment.

I would agree with the above. Looks like a defective planchet to me.

I'm on the "Defective Planchet" side.

With a defective planchet, would that mean that some of the copper is missing, thus preventing a fully formed planchet? But this coin has a normal weight.

With defective planchets we usually see corresponding sides of the coin affected by the defect. The sides opposite both of these features appear unaffected. edit: Good point about the weight Dearborn.. This is a struck through error. edit: It's definitely not a struck "trough" error like the title suggests though  Edited by CoinHI

Struck through debris with the debris preventing full collar deployment resulting in the partial collar error.
Notice how the partial collar error ends at the same location the struck through occurred in photo # 7.

Very, very collectible error in a 1946. Kudos!
