Southern Yankee Pillar of the Community United States 891 Posts	Posted 12/05/2010 12:33 am Pulled this from a mint set I got off ebay. Couldn't tell for sure from the pics, but thought it was from the toned strip. Every now and then there is a little gem to be had on ebay. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/05/2010 11:19 am It reminds me of a coin I found the other day in a mint set. I can't take it out to get a good shot as the struck through is so thin it might just com off. I've never seen one like this one before: Looking through the scope you can see under the struck through plating and it is plated underneath. It flow over the devices like Southern Yankee's coin, but his looks like the devices are pushed back where the top of the devices are. So more images might/not tell more on his coin.

Southern Yankee Pillar of the Community United States 891 Posts	Posted 12/05/2010 2:18 pm Sure coop. It will be just a little bit though. Have to set up the camera and such. Report this Post to the Staff
clairhardesty Pillar of the Community United States 1027 Posts	Posted 12/05/2010 4:11 pm Super struck through wire coin! I have never seen one that covers so much distance before. Report this Post to the Staff
Southern Yankee Pillar of the Community United States 891 Posts	Posted 12/05/2010 4:41 pm Here are some of the field above the date. Hope these work for you. Not as pronounced as the other areas. Report this Post to the Staff
Southern Yankee Pillar of the Community United States 891 Posts	Posted 12/05/2010 4:46 pm I see what you are saying about the middle bar on the E. Could the metal have flowed under the obstruction just a bit and when it was ejected the separation from the obstruction cause the metal to lay back some? Just thinking out loud here.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/06/2010 4:23 pm I would hang onto it for now. Maybe Mike Diamond could shed some light on this one. Report this Post to the Staff
