ctrcrazy2 Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 11/03/2019 09:00 am I found this 2018 LSC that looks like it was struck through debris as it looks like it retained an extra piece of plating at the bottom of bust on obverse, help identifying this one please and thanks in advance for any information Report this Post to the Staff

USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 11/03/2019 09:27 am Looks like some type of lamination. Is this crack line peeling up? Report this Post to the Staff

USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 11/03/2019 10:15 am Excellent pictures! Yep, it's peeling! Plating separation/lamination, it's something. Maybe it's the beginning of zinc rot. Don't mess with it. Put it in a 2x2 flip. It's not common but not rare either. Good eye, nice find! Others will chime in as to how or why it happens. Also, it happened during the strike. Planchet flaw? Edited by USSID18 11/03/2019 10:24 am Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 11/03/2019 12:41 pm I wonder if it isn't struck through copper foil.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/03/2019 4:57 pm OK why is this not a lamination issue? 1. Lamination happens copper/silver planchets. Not on Zinc planchets. 2. Note while it is a line, when you look under the planchet, you see what color? You see that it is plated under that area. If it were peeling off this coin, then what color would it be? Gray. So what is this? It is a struck through plating foil from another coin. Otherwise struck through debris. Great images. Edited by coop 11/03/2019 5:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff
