Hello all!
I was lucky enough to get it out of a scrap bin today! What do you guys think? I'm surprised something this big made it out of the mint. Then again, nails have come out of it, sooo.
Thanks for your comments!

That's a nice lamination flaw! I would have pulled that from the scrap, as well. It probably separated after it left the Mint. It doesn't have much added value, if any, but I like them and it would be a keeper for me.

Yes, very nice. I haven't seen many of these on Franklin's. It almost looks like something is embedded in the lamination flaw at his neck as well. Don't mess with it. Plus, looks like that lamination crack goes to the opposite side of the coin, 5 O'clock position. !
