Bob Levi Valued Member Canada 488 Posts	Posted 06/03/2016 7:08 pm Kinda looks like a lam. The planchet looks flawed to me. Report this Post to the Staff
RidgeWest New Member Canada 34 Posts	Posted 06/03/2016 7:18 pm The alignment of the metal does not appear to have changed since it was struck. Accordingly, it would have to be something in the planchet that was flawed at the time of striking. The crack could have appeared post strike due to failure of the metal. Technically, wouldn't that be a delamination? Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5591 Posts	Posted 06/04/2016 04:52 am There was an impurity in the metal when it was rolled from the ingot and was contained in this planchet. The impurity either expanded at a different rate than the silver alloy or the heat/trauma from the strike itself released gas or allowed atmosphere exposure. Most people would consider it a delamination.. Report this Post to the Staff
