What I believe to be my first nice size lam
Seeing one in hand should help me understand the characteristics of a laminated coin.

Like a scab, I want to peel off the lam. Coins with detached lams are more interesting to me.

EDIT: Added "or Peeled Copper Plating" to header

Not a Lamination. This is actually peeled copper plating. Cool find!

Yes looks like a plating issue to me.

Now the question is--any premium for this type of plating defect? With plating bubbles, the answer is no, but what do y'all think about this one? Or is it just a spender?

Errers and Varietys,

Yes, I need to keep an example for reference.
Question is.. if that area had peeled off, would it look like a lam?

Thanks everyone... time to get back to it

It is a piece of foil from another coin. If it was peeled off this coin, the color would still be copper underneath. It is covering the planchet. Probably the most convincing example I've seen.

What intrigues me is there seems to be two splits running parallel. The obvious one and other running through and beyond the head. With the progress shown in the current images, neither are detached enough to speculate anything more than split or peeled plating. Thanks, Doug.

That might be a stain?
