Yup. Struck through a late stage die cap.
Nice find!

 

Sure is.. Nice example.

 

Looks good to me,nice find!!still haven't found an error truly special a capped die would be awesome!!!.

 

Now, of course, the finder is asking me if he should get it graded and slabbed. My impression is no. Anyone else...

 

Nope,not in that condition.

 

Not worth it.

 

Looks like a later stage die cap. Purdy

 

Your friend sure did fun a nice one while CRH. Congratulations to him.

 

Sure is, good to see a neat find.

 

Selling on eBay between 70 and 90 bucks raw ...

 

Most of the "sold" coins are much much less than that though. By half on average.

 

Having it graded and slabbed always comes down to a question I ask myself. Why? So I can get more if I sell it? So it is protected? So I can win a bet on the grade?
I think your friend needs to ask themselves those questions after they find out how much it would cost them to have it done.

 

Very nice find! I'd advise him as well to just sock it away in a 2X2 and describe it as indicated.

 

Note: a fun find does not = valuable

yes, I'd like to find it, and no, I wouldn't slab it.
