bsshog40 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Could be a slight struck through but I don't think any value would warrant getting it graded. Crawtomatic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex in PA. Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Getting a coin certified, or slabbed as we say, is an individual taste. Some people do it to increase the coin value, others do it to protect the coin or to make it easier to catalogue. Others do not like to slab their coins. You coin is very interesting and hopefully the error people will come along and give you an accurate reading. Good luck. Edited December 17, 2020 by Alex in PA.

Greenstang Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Looks like a struck through to me. even by increasing the size 200%, there is no sign of any metal displacement that would occur if was damage. Certainly not worth the expense of getting it certified though. the cost would be more than the value of the coin but still worth keeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conder101 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Does appear to be a strike through, but the value of the coin and error is almost certainly not grat enough to justify the cost of slabbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray, USMC Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 These are great pictures. I would agree that there seems to be a strike through. I am far from an error expert but it also looks to me as though there is also inadequate die fill just an opinion. The value as an error combined with the coin value still ( for me ) would not justify slabbing. It is certainly worth keeping. The clad layer appears to be thin ? Very interesting coin.

Alex in PA. Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Nice looking coin. I bought a couple Ike's off EBay once. A fella on there, a Coin Doctor. could make some really psychedelic coins. The colors were beautiful. Wound up giving them to a 10 year old YN who just loved them. Go figure.

James_OldeTowne Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 That is a nice strike-through, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
