Lobby Pillar of the Community United States 548 Posts	Posted 10/22/2011 7:50 pm Folks, what do you think of this? Notice the area on the bottom of the coin. At first I thought the coin had "peeled" due to a strike on its edge. Now I'm not so sure. Anyone know what the technical term for this is? Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 10/22/2011 8:54 pm The metal appears, as you suggest, to have peeled and I believe that is something that is always a result of PMD. But I could be wrong -- so I will check back to see what the experts say. I did look up lamination but there's nothing compares to experience. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/23/2011 12:29 pm Looks like a lamination with some movement after being struck. Not PMD in the sence of being altered. But the lamination is starting to peel. Report this Post to the Staff
