Hello all,

Came across two two Pennys, both appear to have some sort of minting issue. Please take a look at the photos and let me know your thoughts.

Thanks
Topekaguy

Both look like lamination errors. One is peeling.

There seems to be a consensus. They are both lamination flaws. The 1924 has one that mostly peeled off and the last of the peel to the left remains and was folded back over the coin face.

The 1947 has not peeled, so it appears almost like a volcanic fault line.

Very nice finds!
