What are your thoughts. Thanks guys. MORE CLOSE UPS FURTHER DOWN. Thanks. Edited by mds308 12/12/2012 9:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff

mds308 Pillar of the Community United States 1721 Posts	Posted 12/12/2012 5:28 pm Not a stain. You can feel the ridge. It's recessed lower. Also, if you look below the right wheat stalk the error forms a right angle. I don't think a stain from fluid or chemical would form this angle. Just a thought. I'll try and get some more magnified images tonight. Edited by mds308 12/12/2012 5:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
DrDon Pillar of the Community United States 2624 Posts	Posted 12/12/2012 7:17 pm Clearly the darker area is recessed. I doubt it was struck through because "TATE" and "RICA" look unaffected. My conclusion is lamination peel prior to strike. Note on lamination: Yesterday I encountered a straight line lamination 1/16 inch wide,.05 inch deep and 120 inches in length.That's correct 10 feet long.
