Just wondering if this is a mint error or not. Great condition 1914 1 cent otherwise.

It almost looks like post mint damage to me... but I'm not 100% sure of that... I want to know the answer too...

Not necessarily the answer but the lifting lamination reminded me of Devlec's very interesting 1859 1c coin:

Lamination/Planchet Flaw Coin Error: I like to think of this error as one where the thin layer of on top of the impurity metal from the coin has not really detached from the coin. These errors appear to have very slight flaws or cracks in the surface of the coin that generally are quite long.

Very nice photography

I thought the only error it could be was a lamination error but I wasn't convinced. If it truly is an error does it bring any value to the coin?
