[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2807360, member: 69760"]You guys have probably checked this out already, but is there another known example of a struck through error that looks like the 1909 VDB cent? The errors that I've seen all have very distinctive and unique indents (e.g. nail, staple). Here's one error that's struck through cloth (!), which makes me think that even the softest materials will leave a mark due to the high pressure strike. So, the indent on the 1909 VDB could have been from a sliver of almost anything!

All of the struck through errors appear to display a perpendicular impression or dent without any dragging or scraping off of material, which is why I'm reluctant to agree with NGC (at least if it's [I]only [/I]caused by a struck through error).

Obviously it's not as intense as this, but more like a small loose piece from another planchet indenting the main planchet.
