On the Obverse: Is this a lamination error or a retained interior die break (I'm going with RIDB)? or neither? On the Reverse: Die break or lam error? Take a look and let me know what you think.

Tootallious Rest in Peace United States 1559 Posts	Posted 02/07/2018 5:41 pm Nice find twistedt While I'm still learning, I'm thinking a lamination issue though the obverse does look like it could be both a lamination and interior die break. Some of the more knowledgable will chime in soon. I'm curious as to what they say! Report this Post to the Staff
