<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 286320, member: 112&quot;]Sometimes it&#039;s hard to tell a strikethrough from post mint damage since they both can have the same effect. In some cases it&#039;s easier than others, like if the strikethrough passes under devices or legends and continues on the other side like in this pic - <img src="http://www.gdjmsp.cointalk.org/coin_pics/Spanish%20Colonial/17492reale.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> - (sorry it&#039;s not a US coin but it&#039;s the only pic I have readily available). </p><p><br /></p><p>Anway, I think you can see what I mean. The line of the string is on top in some areas but under the devices in others. </p><p><br /></p><p>In your case however, since you say that you cannot see the core of the coin ( it&#039;s zinc, not aluminum by the way ) then I would say it is a strikethrough because if it were post mint damage then the zinc would be exposed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
