2005 ASE Strikethrough?

Been looking at all the different strike throughs that have been posted and it reminded me of these two Silver Eagles that my Dad collected. Could these be strike throughs? Or is that the wrong term for what is going on with these coins?


Edited to add, I just found a 3rd coin with the same mark.

    Top pic looks similar to edge dings, but similar mark on two different coins lends itself to the die or what’s between the die and planchets, i.e., possible strikethroughs if incuse.

    The top pic has a much more defined anomaly while the bottom seems to “smooth”’out a little. Perhaps examples of early state to later state strikethroughs?

    Looks like something was on the die... so strike throughs...with the lower coin a later state. Cheers, RickO

    I will post an image of the 3rd coin, to compare that one with these.

    Nice strike thru on big silver.

    Those look like they could be. Ideally you see a red fiber or some sort of thread like material. When that material is not present it’s harder to tell. Can you zoom in and see any thread.

    Best place to buy !

    These progressions are fun to find in unopened Monster boxes. I've got a run of SE where the strike thru goes from obvious to barely visible.

    Does this mean the obverse was the anvil (lower) die?
