Hi,

Another one I would like an opinion on.

What sort of error would this one be classified as ?.

Sorry about the photo of the reverse. Couldn't quite get is any bigger.

Thanks

Wow, if that is a "struck through" error it is one of the worst I've ever seen. The press must have been full of grease.

Hi,
Thks for your comment.
A guy on the global community forum suggested it is a full lamination peel but I don't agree as the thickness is exactly the same as a normal cent. A bit of information that may help to identify error
in the hand and under magnification I can just make out the queen.

Re lamination.
Weigh the coin!
See if it is within normal range.
That will tell if metal is missing.

Yes, i can see a 'ghost' image of the queen.
The coin may be a brockage incident.
