chettieyy Valued Member United States 297 Posts	Posted 06/24/2015 1:47 pm Came across this coin while going through coins obtained over the years and not quite sure if it falls under a lamination or a die crack that eventually turned into a lamination.?.. Anyway I figured you all would enjoy seeing some pics of this impressive (to me anyway) coin. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/24/2015 6:21 pm It looks like it has a fragment struck onto it. What is the weight? It should be heavier a bit if it has something added to the coin during the strike? Report this Post to the Staff
tapapple65 Pillar of the Community United States 538 Posts	Posted 06/24/2015 6:48 pm Have you checked to see if it is a DDO also. It appears it could be DDO 031 which is also a DDR. Just a thought. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 06/24/2015 9:52 pm So... let me get this straight. This could be a Lamination Error, Rim to Rim Die Crack, Stuck Through with Fragment, DDO, DDR, Woody cent? Wouldn't that be some kind of a record? Wait a minute, I think Lincoln has a chip on his shoulder. Edited by CoinMasters 06/24/2015 10:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
chettieyy Valued Member United States 297 Posts	Posted 06/24/2015 10:39 pm Thank you everyone for the comments and information, looks like I'm gonna have to do little searching for markers etc to see if possible DDO or DDR... My main concern is what the correct attribution would be when I label it. Quote: Nice coin! Really weird lamination and nice wood! Thanks SSK, I agree. lots of stuff going on with it. Quote: It looks like it has a fragment struck onto it. What is the weight? It should be heavier a bit if it has something added to the coin during the strike? The weight of it is dead on @ 3.10 grams... If your referring to the piece at the top its hard to explain but its part of the coin, I will get pics up of that particular area so u can see better whats going on in that area... Thanks for your help coop as well as everyone else. Quote: Have you checked to see if it is a DDO also. It appears it could be DDO 031 which is also a DDR. Just a thought. It does appear to have some doubling and thanks for the info as I will definitely start there and see what comes of it and post back when I find out. Quote: So... let me get this straight.

Wait a minute, I think Lincoln has a chip on his shoulder. Honestly I don't know about a record but if it does end up having a DDO and DDR than it will definitely be a very interesting piece to say the least...It wouldn't surprise me if he had a chip on his shoulder Anyway thank you everyone and stay tuned as I will update and feel free to add comments or references that may help with this. kind regards, chet Report this Post to the Staff
CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 06/25/2015 10:08 pm The lower stem on the right wheat stalk (on your coin) looks doubled to me. Here's his Woody brother, same year. Sorry this one is only a Woodie. Wait a minute, it may have some ghosting on it. Edited by CoinMasters 06/25/2015 10:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
