<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 4580765, member: 29239"]Out of how many coin folks have seen this thread I can't believe that someone don't know what most likely happened to the OP'S cent coin. I'm almost certain it is a struck thru coin. In some cases a few tiny beads of mint debris will build up on the dies and get struck into the coins. I have seen hundreds of our modern coins like this from searching thru new rolls of coins from the mint. I kept two awesome state quarters that are identical and from the same die. On the reverse side they have numerous tiny round sunken in places of different sizes that looks like a finale in a fireworks display. When looking at the obverse side both coins have a larger round or maybe oval sunken in place in the side of Washington's head. So the beads of mint debris or whatever it is can become attached to the dies and keep on striking coins until it wears off .I will try to find these two awesome coins and start a thread for them if someone would like to have a look .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
