Is this strike through too 1882-CC GSA uncirculated ?
Rims teeth are bad and mirrored on other side.
My bad luck continues.
There are so many B-rejects being sold. Everybody look carefully when buying. :'(

    That’s a clip with Blakesley affect. Awesome error!

    Agree with above. Look like a minor rim clip with Blakesley. Nice find!

    That is pretty neat to find in a GSA holder!

    What are you thinking is a strike-through? The die crack, upper reverse?

    I believe he is thinking that the weakness on the rims is the strike through. Instead he has a very desirable clip error.

    I strongly suggest you keep that coin in the GSA holder and submit it to NGC for mint error grading. Sell it on a no reserve auction with your auction house of choice and you’ll make quite a bit of money. Very scarce and in demand Carson City mint error.

    Agree, it looks like a minor clip.

    Yes, minor rim clip. Nice to find. Too minor to add much value to an already overpriced coin (I think most of all CC's are way overvalued for the mintage and numbers of MS survivors).

    To answer your question, definitely UNC, as are all GSA CC Morgans. Probably MS60 though.

    Yes it is a plain MS60-62 coin not a looker. Like most GSA dollars still in original holders. Good ones have already been cracked out and resubmitted.
    Ahh. They have a term for this ok. "Blakesley effect".
    I found similar Peace Dollar-forum thread.

    Always want near perfect coins and missed this fault completely :'( .
    Now when I photographed coins with mobile phone's camera faults suddenly appear.

    Mobile phone cameras show every flaw accurately.
