A strong delamination takes place on the obverse. I paid $1-$2 for this one when I initially purchased it. Thanks for taking a look! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/07/2020 7:45 pm Great find. Now if you had this is BU and the lamaination peel, then it would be a higher value coin. But it is, what it is. Note the reverse how it doesn't show any weakness. That tells us that the peel was there when it was struck (not missing before the strike) other wise there would be weakness on that opposite area. Note the weakness when the lamaination falls off pre-strike. The design is weaker when this happens. Edited by coop 03/07/2020 7:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
