ErrorHunter1 Valued Member United States 78 Posts	Posted 03/10/2026 4:17 pm Hello team, This looks to me as lamination error on both obverse and reverse plus post minting scrapes most likely during election, maybe feeder finger ? What say y'all? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75471 Posts	Posted 03/10/2026 4:19 pm Not a Lamination error. Just the result of heavy PMD. https://www.error-ref.com/lamination-cracks/ Also, PMD means it got damaged after leaving the mint, so it's not an error. It's not the same as an actual error. They're different. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 03/10/2026 4:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16880 Posts	Posted 03/10/2026 5:15 pm It appears to me that someone took some long-nosed pliers, held onto the coin tightly with the pliers, then applied a dremel or something similar to both sides of the coin. But that's just a guess. With post-mint damage, unless you've got footage or eyewitness testimony, it's often impossible to be certain exactly what caused the damage. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 99156 Posts	Posted 03/10/2026 6:59 pm This is not a lamination - it looks like a pair of needle nose plier was pressed on it to create that impression. the rest looks like road rash.
