Struck through three pieces of debris. One peeled back over from the edge onto the face of the coin. The other two on the surface of the coin.

The head looks like lamination. The other looks more like something struck onto the coin. The smaller piece near the rim looks like it is a fold over piece of the larger area.

 with DrDon. I see nothing struck through only lamination.

Why does the so called lamination show a fold over from the edge toward the center of the coin, if it is lamination?

Lamination flaws/peels can fold over on themselves. This all looks like lams to me. Where there is one, expect others. @coop, here is a folded lam coming from the rim toward the center of the coin:  I regret selling that one, but such is life.

An interesting piece regardless of whether it is a multi-lam or multi-struck through. Worth saving in a 2x2.

USSID18: Take note. spruett001: On your coin you can see where the lam had been before flipping over. On the OP's coin there is no such area. The only conclusion is it is a foreign object. It looks like it is attached to the larger object making it a foreign object too.

Quote: On your coin you can see where the lam had been before flipping over. On the OP's coin there is no such area. Au contraire! OP's coin actually shows a lamination peel that folded from the field toward the rim and then folded back on itself. It is more difficult to see than my example because there are no letters involved and the shapes are irregular. I added a couple red arrows here to show the lines from which the peel broke before it was folded:  You can actually trace approximately where the peel came from by noting differences in texture, reflection and color in the field. It did not extend to Abe's face:

So... in conclusion this is a separate piece of metal that was struck through and resided on the coin? Sorry... just trying to understand.  didn't kick in this morning... lol
