Jbdcboy Valued Member United States 104 Posts	Posted 08/31/2021 11:44 am So I know subjective bit is a LAM 2x2 worthy? Carries a premium? Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19146 Posts	Posted 08/31/2021 12:15 pm Does a coin with a lamination issue have value? There are some collectors who go nuts over lamination issues--the more dramatic (and the better overall condition of the coin), the better. It's possible someone would be willing to fork over 1-3 dollars for yours in its current state. If your coin was a MS64+, you might get $12-20. In my opinion, it's 2x2 worthy.

Jbdcboy Valued Member United States 104 Posts	Posted 08/31/2021 1:01 pm Thanks. I did 2x2 it as I thought it was unique given the LAM length. Appreciate the opinion. JB Report this Post to the Staff
