Edge pic of where the appears to be lamination is? Looks like a lamination that has grown into a partial split planchet type thing.

This example does continue across the edge and does a 45 to the left but my old camera won't pick it up. Lamination can run across the edge?

Excellent lamination feature. Yes, laminations can extend into the rim. I've come across a few over the many years.

I am sorry to contradict my friends here. This it is not "Lam". This coin has Metal Age Crack. I thing error-ref.com has this specification in one of theirs pages. The signs are on the coin.

Die cracks don't peel. A lamination can peel. Note the peel on the area NE/SW on the ONE CENT devices. Not a die crack. As mentioned it is a lamination issue.

Lamination is likely. A strong hold on this coin remains. Maybe someday I'll list all my numerous lamination coins for sale but its doubtful.
