morganman Valued Member United States 397 Posts	Posted 01/22/2007 6:08 pm At first, I thought this was post mint damage, however, upon inspecting it closely, it is actually cracks in the coin. Some kind of lamination? MM Oh, and for those that were questioning in another post the QX5 microscope, these are taken with one....it's OK..... Report this Post to the Staff

morganman Valued Member United States 397 Posts	Posted 01/22/2007 11:20 pm Thanks for the replies. Is it just bad metal lamination from the planchets, or did something get in the way and get nailed to the coin? I do not remember hearing if IHC's had planchet problems, but I assume any coin could. Is this common for IHC's? MM Report this Post to the Staff
