My Friends on the CRH posts recommend starting a post on my 2022 WM quarter, Should I submit as a potential error?
From Philly mint, Thanks, Joe

It is a rather large struck-through object.
Probably a little piece of plastic was on top of the planchet when it was struck.
So it is a genuine "mint error".
It has a some value as an oddity, but perhaps not quite enough to justify the time and expense of submitting it to a grading service.
Joe, do you know how much it will cost to submit this as a potential error?
Can you estimate what it would be worth after it is submitted?
Is the second number larger or smaller than the first?
If you don't know how to answer those questions, what information are you missing?

Thanks, Joe
@Joe_360 submission fees to our host are available at https://www.pcgs.com/servicesandfees
When calculating fees, remember to include:
Every striking error is unique. However, there are usually other examples that are similar. Check eBay and Heritage archives to compare prices for similar examples. Search for "struck through".
When calculating value, remember to subtract the fees for selling (on eBay or at Heritage or wherever) from the final sale price you would get at that venue.
As a hint: I think you will find that the cost to get this item slabbed is significantly over $100, while the estimated sale price is significantly under. Check for yourself, don't take my word for it.

Thank you, Joe
It's a large strike through, not post mint damage. It's not worth certification imho.
I'd sell it raw as-is, and I'd sell it soon. Lotta attention on these right now, good time to move it.
Costs to certify just this one coin would probably be around $100 all in.

thanks all
I agree with the 'keep it raw, sell it now' group. Expensive to slab, probably would not recoup the fees. Cheers, RickO
Thanks all, I believe I'll put it in a 2X2 and keep it as I don't need the $$. Keep my eye open if any others are found...
Joe
Very nice error.
