    I think you mean Varieties, errors are unique.
    Yes there are a bunch but I don't have a list
    of them.

    Stuck thru something is my guess w/o pics. Not rare but not common.

    Based on the description I'm with manorcourtman, but a picture will definitely help.

    Interesting. Certainly looks like some sort of strikethrough to me.

    Not really. I think that'd be a waste of money.


    << <i>Any value? >>


    Sure. I'd imagine it's worth a (small) premium, for being interesting.

    But errors and varieties aren't really my forte.

    Struck thru, probably through grease. Not a lamination as the interior of the dent is too smooth. No premium beyond being interesting to look at. Nice pics, too.
