    I've been waiting this lovely Woody to arrive but still in transit.

    I can't be sure enough if this possible Retained Struck Through Fiber untill coin arrive to inspect but here I put arrows green and orange, hope get some insights here.

    Awesome woodgrain effect. Looks like there may be a bit of lamination error that possibly retained some cloth fibers when someone wiped it. What do you think is on the knee area? Some kind of dent or discoloring, so hard to tell from photos.

    Yup hard to tell but when you look at upper orange arrow it seems the Fiber go through and lamination noted on some areas.

    Not all woodies delaminate. Most don't, in fact.

    Hahaha.. Well, hard to believe if the coin not on hand. BTW after removing from flip the Fibers still there submerged/retained on part where the green arrow highlighted in the pictures.

    But now I have 2 findings that need thorough examination before conclusion.

    This wood grain it so awesome on hand with luster still intact on the coin.
