Bezo816 Valued Member United States 131 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 12:28 am Trying to fill my 09'-40' Lincoln folder, and purchased this one. Was wondering if it is a die crack, or what they call a "lucky hit" where someone damaged it after it was minted? As always, thank you for your time!! Report this Post to the Staff

USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 12:33 am It's not a die crack. It looks like some type of Lamination. It's a legitimate mint error. I happened during the minting process. Nice find! Take pictures of the entire coin rev. and obv. next time you post. http://www.error-ref.com/lamination-cracks/ Edited by USSID18 07/22/2018 12:37 am Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 12:59 am Fair price for the date/mm. Lams don't increase the sale value much unless really dramatic, half coin gone, peeled and flipped over, that kind of thing. A split one, with piece off, Nada mucho. Report this Post to the Staff
