Titles are Important! * Hi Guys- I think I just pulled a very nice lamination error from a roll. Yes, I am still learning. Date, Lincolns chest, and all the way up to we tr and d in god. The reverse has what looks like a die crack from T in States to S in Pluribus. It seems to be in decent condition also. Let me know what you think- Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/28/2019 8:24 pm Looks like a peeling linear plating bubble that has popped. Spend it. Not a keeper. The coins life is greatly reduced when the plating is split through exposing the zinc. Report this Post to the Staff
Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 02/28/2019 9:01 pm seeing sold listing on ebay from $2 up to $50 depending on age and degree of lamination. even at $2 it's not a spender, but probably not worth the effort trying to sell. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/01/2019 05:16 am It is not a lamination. It is a plating issue. As far as I know,a copper plated coin can not have a lamination but the zinc core might. This is not the case with this coin though,just a plating issue. Spender. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
