tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 12:03 am Lamination errors fairly often look similar to this one. There is a straight tear with the lamination gone, and then it appears to bend at a sharp angle, with a texture change. I have always assumed that for the most part that the section after the bend is just a struck through of the tail of the lamination that was coming off. But in this case, I'm not sure how that would come about, since there is already a little fold over there and that "tail" end of the lamination is reduced as the nose and surroundings are not lifted off. Anyway, seemed like something worth thinking about and maybe get some input on how this style of lamination comes about. 1934 Lincoln Wheat cent mint error - lamination loss Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 12:25 am I will explain what I see: This it is what we say three ex-foliation damage. 1. Follow the strait line I do 'it could be the planchet enroll side and has marks of crenelated rolls. 2. The pink circle show a missing planchet part. Generally is due to a peace of carbon from melt. 3. The green circle show that the ex-foliation was rise and during the struck fold. Very nice coin. The best I see in my life has 4 and are at my knowledge only 3. For 3 I could say 25 and less. Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5785 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 06:56 am I wonder if the recessed area over the date is a rolled-in piece of the long lamination (from when the planchet stock was formed)? Similar to the coin in this thread Mike Diamond weighed in on. http://goccf.com/t/412666 If the area over the date is from a rolled-in piece, it may have fallen out after the strike since it appears to overlap the metal forming the nose area.
