On Lincoln's head, of course. Picked this one up for $0.05 at the LCS. I think I did decent.  Edited by CoinHuntingDrew 06/30/2015 10:15 pm

It's a nice little lam. What I find interesting is that most lams follow the bad mix of the alloy. Does anyone else notice that?

a woodie is caused by an uneveny mixed alloy, so are many laminations. sooooo...many woodies will have laminations and vise versa...and many woodies can probably become laminations with some more circulation.

Nice coin, Drew. You got a good deal. It also has very little wear for a 1936.

Yes, there are other causes as well, that is why I said many are caused by improper mixing, not all ;) also to prove that it is very likely caused by the mixing of the alloy, note the laminated part and how it is lighter that the metal above it.
PS to silverstackerkid, great posts lately, you're rubbing off as a VERY smart person.

Nice one!  Quote: Pretty much 95 percent of it comes from you guys. In my case its 98%. The other 2% I'll credit Google and books. Thanks, Doug.

Quick question to coinhuntingdrew, have you checked it for a DDO or DDR? I'm curious because I have a feeling you were so excited by the woody and lamination and forgot to check

The extra thickness in the date, may just be my eye tricking me, does look a bit conspicuous. It is a higher grade relative to most 1936 cents but this one is a low grade. This might be circulation flattening I am seeing from here, or, it is a DDO. CHD, I would check if I were you.

Quote:...have you checked it for a DDO or DDR? No, actually I haven't. When I uploaded this pic onto here I noticed the 6 looks like that doubling you see in a 1936. I didn't want to say anything, just was waiting for someone to point it out and make sure I wasn't the only one seeing something. I have to take a look at this later.
