SjlundCoin Pillar of the Community United States 534 Posts	Posted 06/19/2016 1:46 pm It is a post strike. If it were a pre strike lamination then the flaking part wouldn't be there. It would have already fallen off before the strike. Yours still has the flaking part on the coin so it would have to be a post strike. Report this Post to the Staff
Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3331 Posts	Posted 06/19/2016 2:31 pm I do not really understand why the flake would have to fall off before the strike. I did find a comment on one of the CCF threads which suggested that the opposite face of the coin opposite the feature would be a bit weakly struck in a pre strike lamination. Mine is not, so I am now leaning the other direction - towards a post strike lamination. Edited by Pete2226 06/19/2016 3:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/19/2016 3:38 pm It would be post strike. The peel loosened later. If it happened pre-strike, then we would not see the displacement of the lamination. It would be straight on the rim area. Report this Post to the Staff

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3331 Posts	Posted 06/21/2016 4:18 pm I have had someone suggest to me that this is a folded over rim burr. I have not hear of rim burrs, much less folded over. Does anyone have any comments about that? Does anyone have a link to a resource on rim burrs I could read? Does anyone have an image of a rim burr they could post? Thanks for any help! Report this Post to the Staff

But when the raise off the rim, then circulation can flatten them. Report this Post to the Staff
