sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 07/13/2020 3:50 pm So should a LAM on a 1911 D Wheat cent in XF/AU cost less with a large LAM across the face? It was about $20 instead of $40. I know that grading by PCGS would probably list it as details and not Lamination error, but are sellers just missing a market by reducing price because they say it has details? Thoughts.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/13/2020 3:57 pm Often details, could mean the coin was cleaned. Most times they will label the coin as genuine without a grade. Or they could mean the details we not graded? (They may consider that as a negative for the coin? So without seeing the coin, I'm just guessing at this point. Report this Post to the Staff
sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 07/13/2020 4:06 pm The seller has it listed as details in ebay. It hasn't been graded yet (and they have the non-LAM side showing first). https://www.ebay.com/itm/1911-D-Lin....m4902.l9144 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/13/2020 4:07 pm Agree, without a pic it's hard to say. Some collectors (including me) usually consider a lamination as a flaw that lowers a coin's value. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19582 Posts	Posted 07/13/2020 5:05 pm I like lamination issues on coins, the more dramatic, the better. I wouldn't spend $21.97 (what the seller is asking), but I'd jump on it if it were somewhat less. Report this Post to the Staff

sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 07/14/2020 1:31 pm Thanks all for the comments. I've just trying to understand the the group think on coins like this, and if they were missing a trick. I wasn't planning to buy the coin at all from the beginning, so anyone making a offer on it isn't stepping on my toes at all. I need a 1911 D but looking for a variety at same time.
