ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19244 Posts	Posted 09/08/2021 3:52 pm Agree--lamination on obverse, die crack on reverse. The term Cud is typically associated with rim die (break) issues Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/08/2021 10:44 pm Or a struck through debris issue. If struck through debris, the weight should be closer to 3.11 grams. The reason I went with debris rather than lamination is that lamination issue tend to flow in a straight line. (Because the metal was cold rolled and stretched when making the metal thickness correct) Thus a piece of debris can be any shape, or re-shaped after the strike on to the planchet during the strike. This looks like a very thin debris thickness. Report this Post to the Staff
