srcliff Valued Member United States 453 Posts	Posted 11/20/2014 6:18 pm Not sure if this is a die crack or not. Look at the line running from the hair on Lincolns head going past his ear. Doesn't seem to be a scratch. Report this Post to the Staff

srcliff Valued Member United States 453 Posts	Posted 11/21/2014 08:44 am Why lamination error? I thought that usually looked like a patch and not a line. Pardon my ignorance I'm rather new to the error hunting game. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/22/2014 03:19 am The lamination is starting to peel. But not a high premium for this. Moat laminations that are minor are in the 50 cent to one dollar range. Stronger ones bring a little bit more. Edited by coop 11/22/2014 03:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
