    Looks like a weak die clash not s strike through. Pretty common and no real value

    It's Progressive indirect design transfer (ghosting) No added value. You'll find this quite often on English Pennies from the early 1900s

    The issue is your terminology. This is not a "strike through" and doesn't look like one. ;)

    A struck through error is something else.

    Caused by over-used dies.
