A pretty big issue with lamination on this coin, with areas lost, lifted but retained, rim included, linear and ragged. Overall a pretty nice example of what lamination issues can look like all on one coin.

For those who follow Monty Python, I called my filename lamalot.

That's impressive, nice find! With extreme examples, there is usually something showing through on the opposing side but I don't see a thing.

Probably my favorite scene!

One of the best lamination examples I've seen.

Thanks! And I just knew there would be a few Python fans on the board.

Wow!
At least 75% of the obverse is affected by the laminations.

We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Like I tend to say, don't call the smaller stuff huge or you won't have anything left to call the really big ones. This one is still more unique, in my opinion, for the variety of lamination showing rather than just the overall size. It's just got a lot to look at.
