BlueSolo Pillar of the Community United States 740 Posts	Posted 12/03/2015 10:59 pm The die chips are correct. But the first picture is a small lamination that is still attached. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 12/03/2015 11:27 pm That's really cool with the lamination error, haven't learned much on that that. I am happy that the chip ones were correct . I am learning slowly. Now I don't know then, I have this other coin which had the squiggly lines and only posted the 1 figuring they were the same, so how about this one then, Lamination or Die crack? Thanks so much Report this Post to the Staff

A die crack is a raised bump of metal on the coin. When the die cracks that area then allows the planchet metal to flow into those cracks.
