I believe this to be a lamination error, if I am wrong please let me know.

Not an expert, as you have read on previous posts, so I won't venture a guess. Just wanted to note that it's a very cool coin!!

One of two choices, I cant tell which from the pictures. It is most likely a lamination error.

There is a chance that it is struck through a fragment of metal and the fragment was retained after the strike.

In hand, I would have to see if there was a point where the metal was attached acting like a hinge, so to speak. If you can see where the metal is actually a part of the surface of the coin then it is a lamination error.

If it looks like the whole section could lift up off the coin, then it might be a strike through a metal fragment and the fragment is retained.

Thanks,

Bill

It is connected in the middle of the 0. But it will lift up, don't want to lift too high, afraid it will tear off.
