TippyCanoe Pillar of the Community United States 607 Posts	Posted 11/26/2020 9:34 pm I don't even no where to begin. So I thought and still do that this has something struck into the coin. Like a wrapper. Then I showed my daughter and the top part sort of flaked off but the bottom part stayed and can't be taken off even with a needle which you can see we tried doing. Take a look. The coin isn't that great but is this something struck into the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

If it was a lamination folded pre-strike it would be flush with the surface and it isn't. If it was lamination folded post strike there should be a rough depression area where the folded lamination material came from and I'm not seeing that either. It originally had a matching piece above the date and it's removal has not left a depression or rough area either. A retained strike though? Maybe but once again that should be flush with the surface. I suspect something stuck to the coin. But even if it is an error all the needle scratches from trying to remove it would have removed most of the value. Report this Post to the Staff

Perhaps lower value from the damage, but still a neat find and the cost of ownership is low.
