I just started going through coins and found something that may be worth something. Can you please let me know your thoughts? I believe there is a die crack under the buffalo's chin.

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 6:38 pm Interesting!! Might be a planchet flaw - looks like possible peeling of a layer of the base metal. Report this Post to the Staff
Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 6:53 pm It looks like it might be a retained lamination error. It appears to have lifted the I of FIVE. Handle with care! And Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 7:12 pm A better picture of that area in question will be helpful. May be a lamination problem but what''s going on between the I and the V is hard to see/tell Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34458 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 8:26 pm @BBL, first welcome to CCF. Second, you have an interesting coin there. I hope that you are able to post a better pic of that area so that we can figure out if it is a die crack, lamination, or scratch.

Kopper Ken Pillar of the Community United States 3402 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 9:29 pm Could it be a retained piece of metal? Need better pics, enlarged. Also looks like the metal got "squished" between the I & V and popped up. KK Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 02/28/2018 01:41 am It heavily resembles a lamination flaw. It is not a scratch or a die crack, that much I can tell. Better pics would be appreciated. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff
