Finally got my first batch of customer wrapped rolls by going to a small bank, had tons of them, along with very old mint wrapped rolls.

Found this out of the first roll, is it a lam or PMD?

Circulation Flattening?

Can't help with the lam, but I believe the 2nd image is in fact circulation flattening.

Thanks CH17, just confirming.

Also I believe this would be a delamination, instead of a lam.

Of the Obverse Spence? Alright, I'll post the reverse, where the supposed delam is located as well:

I vote for a lam/delam as well.

Definite lam or delam, terms seem to be used interchangeably.

I believe it's a delam over a lam.

Sorry all, but I don't agree that there is a lam on this coin. I believe it may have been an attempt at a counterstrike of some sort making it PMD.

Look closely at the inside edge of the wheat stalk in the first image to the left of the 'o' for the bulge that I believe indicates a counterstrike which displaced part of the wheat stalk.

Quite happy to be proven wrong though.

Actually the error is called a lamination.
When it peels the peel is called a lamination peel.

Don't forget an attached lamination.

Or a peeled lamination. The bald spot this coin.

I guess when you have a flat tire. That describes what happened.
The term I had a blow out, describes what the damage is to the tire.
A separation on a tire would also describe what happened.
But when you go to the tire story your first words would be, "I have a plat tire."
So with lamination issue on a coin. It could be missing, attached or peeled. But all fall under the term "lamination error".
