I also found a ms65 1983 Lincoln that on the obverse the background surface to the right of Liberty, is slightly raised in two perfect rectangular shapes and the line dividing the shapes goes right through the y in liberty. what type of error is this,lamination?

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/03/2015 10:54 am That is part of a clash. You are seeing part of the bays that transferred during a clash from the reverse die. Here is a mock up overlay from a 2000-s cent: Edited by coop 01/03/2015 10:54 am Report this Post to the Staff

Tenhulz Valued Member United States 134 Posts	Posted 01/03/2015 11:15 am Is this lamination? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/03/2015 11:17 am Looks more like damage. Note how the area in question is taller the the devices? That is a sure sign for damage because the metal has been moved. On a lamination, it can peel away, but not raise the surface of the coin as damage does. Report this Post to the Staff
Tenhulz Valued Member United States 134 Posts	Posted 01/03/2015 11:22 am Makes perfect sense, Thanks coop! Report this Post to the Staff
Tenhulz Valued Member United States 134 Posts	Posted 01/03/2015 3:49 pm This is the first time I've seen doubling on both sides. Can I get a opinion on this coin and would it be wise to get graded? Thanks in advance! Report this Post to the Staff
Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 01/03/2015 3:52 pm That looks like the result of extreme die wear, and not a doubled die, unfortunately, you can see evidence of the wear by the rippling effect in the fields Report this Post to the Staff
