da Swampster Valued Member United States 420 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 12:46 pm I would think this and similar type of damage could happen only during either planchet punch-out or squeezing.. Since there's damage to rim/edge as well one would think it happened post-upset.. Both..? Wish I knew AtoZ of modern minting process.. I've yet to find any vid on the web anywhere close to entirety..

Newbie234 Pillar of the Community United States 1386 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 1:07 pm Pretty interesting coin E&V. This example is why I try my best to explain a mint error over PMD. Because if this was found in the wild it would almost immediately be chalked up as such! Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74758 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 3:05 pm Thank you David Swampster and Newbie234. Newbie, I agree with your statement. This was pulled from an Original Bank Wrapped Brilliant Uncirculated roll of 2018 Lincoln Shield Cents. It came out like this and it's very weird. Somehow, the Copper plating got cracked during the Minting process. Very unusual. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 05/28/2018 3:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Newbie234 Pillar of the Community United States 1386 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 3:32 pm I agree. That was my point. If this was found in a regular circulated roll. The responses would've been"spendable" ," PMD" "parking lot coin". I think sometimes people are to easy to dismiss a coin rather than look at it deeply and try and figure out if it could've happened at the mint. Let's be honest; There are some coins that have been certified mint error coins that would make you scratch your head and say "How did that leave the mint?" Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74758 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 3:36 pm I definitely agree with you on that. I think we should spend more time assessing on what happened to the coins. I try to do my best, when assessing coins. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Coppergold Pillar of the Community United States 939 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 4:50 pm http://www.error-ref.com/split-peeling-plating/ This refers to it as post strike damage. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74758 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 5:32 pm Coppergold, it could be that, but the Zinc is still fresh and hasn't rotted yet. I see no raised Zinc on my coin. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I'm kinda unsure myself. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
da Swampster Valued Member United States 420 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 7:45 pm Quote: http://www.error-ref.com/split-peeling-plating/ This refers to it as post strike damage. That information references the hydrozincide crystals as post-strike damage.. The split-plating shown occurs during the minting process..

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74758 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 8:01 pm Thank you da Swampster for the clarification. The Split Plating happens the minting process, while the hydrozincide crystals happens when the Zinc start to rot (Post Strike Damage). Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
