Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 07/12/2011 11:55 am Very nice find. Looks a lot like a struck-through-wire error. Steel brushes have been known to be used to keep the press parts clean. Just out of curiousity I would check if the retained bit is magnetic - it may have rusted to a brown color.
