Does this look like retained wood debris from the strike thru???

Lets say this does turn out to be wood, what would this coin then be worth, auction estimate, or similar example price?

Typically only retained wood steikethroughs are where the money is at. Sure this looks like it has a bit or two left but I doubt it would add more of a premium over a non-wood steikethrough of similar size. Now, if a big old hunk of wood was still imbeded boy oh boy

 

AMEN!

 

I get it Monday. Ill have Chris check it out and see what he thinks.

Im sticking to wood. There are tiny flakes of it all over the reverse. Some are still inside the strike thru above the "O" and under the leaf cluster. A tiny fleck to the upper left of the star between the "one" and "united". Theres a wood speck next to the bow on the wreath. Theres a few under the wood shafts near the arrowhead tips, one to the right of the leaf cluster near the "C" and "A" of America. There are a few wood flakes above "god", one above the wing near the "S" of States, and the largest in the "O" of One.

@messydesk nailed it. Nice super woody!

 

He Sure did!

 

Would ANACS relabel it struck thru wood debris if requested and also flip the coin so the reverse is facing the front? The slab has a few scratches in undesirable places too.

Obviously, you'll need to call them. IMO, They will put the reverse up but will just call it a struck-thru.
