Weight seems normal. A lamination peel shouldn't effect weight because the metal is still on the coin, a delamination the coin will be under Weight depending the size of the peel that was removed. Definitely don't try and peel it off.

That is a nice delamination!!

I think delamination is when the lamination peel comes off during the striking process but other can confirm

I think of it in general terms. It could be worded as "a delamination on the surface" or "a lamination error". I notice people on this forum usually use lamination. I am used to using delamination because that is what happens on a skateboard when the different layers of wood split. Maybe there is a specific way to use those terms with numismatics?

In not sure exactly what technical terms are used but that's just from what I have read on this sidlte and multiple other. PCGS refers to laminations that are attached as a lamination error, if it's not attached it's a detached lamination error(or delamination) if the lamination was peeled off its usually noticable, where as a lamination the was retained after the strike, or removed has a name of its own. I'm still learning the lingo for some of these errors lol.

This coins majority of the people will say DELAM. In fact it is the effect of aging coin (metal). If you look to the marks of circulation, the composition of the planchet will give the answer. This do not happened in the process of minting, it is post mint due to the metal aging.

I know lamination errors usually happen after the coin was minted but though it was due to impurities in the metals causing issues with them binding. If this is the case then the error happens post mint but was not noticable untill the aging process caused the lamination to start splitting from the coin.

Correct theory. But the form you has on your coins come from aging and forces applied and not from structure of the material. Face to face we can debate this hours because it is a very interesting point of the collecting.

Thank you to you all for your insights. I'll work on my cropping and rotating image abilities for the future. I will be taking this to our next coin club meeting here in Cleveland, nonetheless, it's now in a 2x2 and will be kept.

I will keep also. In general the diagnostic will be crack planchet and foliation (delam).
