The reverse has a lamination issue with the N. The rest looks pretty beat up from circulation to me.

Pretty interesting lamination error...haven't seen one so isolated so far....thought it looked like damage until microscope showed extra material.

I have plenty. I find them interesting and cool sometimes. Like this one! This one is also an improper alloy mix or also known as woody.   |

The "N" looks like lamination issue to me but I am no expert. I was questioning strike through but it did not fit the parameters for such. I think a die chip/die filing next to the "we"

Actually it is a struck through error on that device (debris). Like on the 1940 that is a lamination. The difference? Laminations tend to flow in a straight line,because they are excess metal cold rolled into the stock material. Thus whey they flow across a coin. A struck through debris, is a chip of metal that fell into the machine either on the planchet or from a previous coin. They get struck on to the coin, but do not flow in a single direction, but spread out from the center of where it is now located. (Sometimes permanently, sometimes can fall off)So we have an example of both of these on this thread.

You are just a wealth of information! I have many lamination pennies that need to be re-evaluated. Thank you!

Or some of them could be struck through errors. If you have a large Struck through error and it is still attached, How you determine if it is a lamination or a struck through debris? The lamination coin will be normal weight or slightly less. The Struck through would be heavier, but not a lot though. Reason? Adding to the coin or removing from the coin. Debris addition, Lamination removal of weight.
