Dearborn Moderator United States 95018 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:02 pm it all looks like circulation hits/damage to me. The long vertical one above the date I thought may be a lam, but the close-up just shows as a scratch to me.. Other areas where the devices didn't strike well may be Grease Filled Die of just extreme wear from circulation. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

hlw1976 Valued Member United States 422 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:07 pm Here's the deal it's not in a 2x2 I have it on a 2x2 because it makes it easy for me not to scratch the back of the coin when I'm looking through it second is the line above the date is a crack all the way from in between the s and the t down to the five and then out again.

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:38 pm I agree with lam plus DDD on the date. Everything else looks like circulation damage to me too.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8733 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:41 pm The closeups helped greatly and is most definitely a lam and what looks like worn out dies, on a coin that has been on a long, long trip. Nice find! -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95018 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 9:49 pm ok now with the extreme close-up pics, it does seem to be a lamination issue, but not a crack. Collecting since 1972.
