chzman Pillar of the Community United States 1137 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 4:21 pm I believe that this was struck through cloth. Purchased from a dealer calling this lamination but in his defense, he is a world coin collector not an error collector. Sharp edge means that this happened during the strike and being a plated coin and no exposed zinc, it could not be a detached lamination. Thank You! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 4:45 pm I don't think it is cloth. On a struck through cloth you can see the fiber lines: It might be some paper/card stock preventing the strike there. What ever it was, was the thickness of the area affecting your coin. You might try placing a piece of paper to see if that is the thickness of that lipped area. If it is less you might try another thickness of card stock. Stuff gets into the machines.

Pete41 Valued Member United States 261 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 7:51 pm Nice looking coin to have. It also looks like a slight misaligned die on the obverse. If the obverse and reverse looked the same it would ne an off center strike. The reverse looks near normal though. Report this Post to the Staff

OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 9:58 pm I think on Cuds on coins they have "struck through a split capped die" stuff that looks similar Report this Post to the Staff
