Nick_E New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 09/24/2013 9:22 pm Hello. I got recently this Czechoslovakia 1951 1 Koruna aluminum coin. Coin appears to be in uncirculated condition to me but the surface is damaged on one side. Is it mint error or something else? Thanks in advance. Nick * Edited by Staff to clarify topic title.

If so, that would indicate a planchet lamination. A lamination is a flaw in the metal caused by slag impurities or improperly mixed alloy. Report this Post to the Staff
