I believe that is a retained delamination. Interesting coin  |

@TS, you want to keep this in a 2x2 in order to prevent that hinged flake of metal from breaking off from the rest of the coin. It is likey worth a premium either way, but better to keep all of the layers attached.

 this is a Lamination error, mostly Retained Laminations. I found this on Error-Ref dealing with the lamination/delamination terminology. Quote:The term "lamination error" is grammatically incorrect as the metal is actually delaminating. While "delamination error" would be the proper term, we're stuck with the terminology we've inherited from previous researchers. See: http://www.error-ref.com/?s=lamination ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

It is now a floppy lamination peel, kind of a comb over onto the bust. In BU it would have a lot more value. But still a keeper.
