I know. Something is hosed-up on my end. Stby...
SBA struck-through.
Yes, @JBK
over 46 years. where have you been all my life?
Thanks again @JBK !! 👍 👍
I just hope I'm right that it's a struck-through and not some Dremel project. 😆
looks good to me.
You and me both! 🤣 🤣
I also tried tagging some of the key player error guys but that didn't work either. 🤷♂️

Generically speaking, yes, a strike-through, and a nice one.
But what was struck through? The shape is similar to the shape of the borders of the coin. i want to say that it was struck through an off-center detatched clad layer, or something like that. Something about it makes me think that it wasn't a detatched clad layer. Maybe something similar?
I agree with what Jonathanb said - it’s a nice struck through, and although the shape seems like it might have been through a detached unstruck clad layer, those I have seen have a much more defined circular shape – this one is circular, but it’s not as distinct as a clad shell.
It is not struck through grease in my opinion. Very nice role find – congratulations
Now that's a sweet error!
Broadly speaking, I would have no problem calling it an indent. But thru what, I'm not certain. Planchet-like, clearly. But going thru the Heritage archives for SBA indents, and any struck-thru clad layers, suggests that the object was thicker than a clad layer, but thinner than a normal planchet. So... (And, for the record since I'm sure others have thought to the obvious implication, I don't think we can say that it was indented by a quarter planchet (tho that is a possibility)).

Anyone else have any ideas? I assume it's slab-worthy, but does anyone have any ideas about value?
Nice find!
Not me. I'm happy with the feedback. I'll post the results when it comes back from grading.
One thing I thought of today is perhaps an off-center die cap? It'd get thin after a few strikes, and perhaps a coint struck thru it may look thusly. But who knows?

This is why I lurk....great find!
.
If it is a struck through wouldn't it still be the correct weight?
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Yes, agree.
nice find - I am curious about the roll found in - was it a circulated roll from a bank or original roll that has sat unopened for over 45 years?
Super cool find! Congrats!!

Pretty impressive.
Just as a possibility, perhaps a cladding layer split off of another planchet prior to strike and ended up getting struck into this piece.
Great find! Congrats 👏
