The bats took a chunk out of his head! Any idea what kind of error this is? Some kind of struck-through?

    Nice! Looks like a good sized strike-thru. :)

    Pandemic spread from the bat...looks like a Massachusetts, and Long Island strike through...quarantine coin for two weeks. We'll be on the lookout. Thanks for heads up.

    Yes, and it normally shows up on a number of successive coins.

    Someone swung a board at the bat, missed and hit Washington instead.

    Nice catch!

    Very interesting... and finding two is great... I cannot determine what material was 'struck through' in this case... could be metal debris....Cheers, RickO

    They are, but only for sale to collectors.. so I had to buy a third Dansko album just to hold them

    Hard to say since it is a "repeatable error"

    It depends on how many are found.

    Nice, and a good-sized struck through on a 2020 coin.
