    First attempt at posting a pic. This UK penny has a blockage of some type ..most likely grease. We will see how it turns out.

    Looks like it was struck through grease, and the term for the missing detail just inside the rim is beading.

    Well I certainly woudnt spend it if I found it, I have not come across one like that before and believe me I check my pocket change regular LOL
    Now on to the pics, if you can trim some of the background out it would be a lot better, are you photograping or scanning the coin?
