jay4202472000 Pillar of the Community United States 853 Posts	Posted 05/17/2013 3:10 pm I found this 1948-D Lincoln Wheat cent with an impression running through the tip of the left wheat head. Do you guys think it is a lamination error, struck through error, or PMD? I don't think it is PMD as it appears that the tip of the wheat head is intact. I'm thinking lamination because it appears to go "under" the tip of the wheat head. It looks like the problem was in the planchet before striking. But if that is the case, how did the tip of the wheat head show up. It looks like it would be incuse also. Sorry for rambling. Just trying to go through the process in my head. Thanks folks!
