Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 2:54 pm Plating seems to be peeling. Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 3:09 pm Thanks Coinfrog. Looks like I was wrong again. I'm still learning to properly identify errors but I'm getting better Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 5:26 pm This is the best peel on a plated coin that I've seen. Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 6:11 pm Thanks Cujohn. I thought it was a strong plating or planchet error for a zincoln also Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5772 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 7:07 pm IMHO the incuse part of the irregularity was on the coin prior to the copper plating being applied. If the plating came off in the incuse areas, wouldn't the zinc be exposed? I'm in the camp of defective planchet before the plating. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 7:17 pm Still a nice example of a plating peal. But, Pete brings up a good argument against it. (with one exception at the K-2:45 area where the zinc is exposed.) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 7:18 pm But zinc doesn't laminate. It is pure zinc. Looks more like a scratch and plating issue. Note the exposed zinc areas. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 12:40 pm If you can see plating below that area instead of gray color, then you could have a piece of plating that was struck onto your coin. But if you seeing just gray under there, it is a split plating issue. The reason I asked this question is that the affected area looks like it is on the rim and possibly wraps around the edge of the coin? But if it is just gray under the loose area, it is not a struck issue. But not a lamination error. Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 3:48 pm Thanks coop. I'm going get some acetone and give it a soak. I checked the edge and didn't see anything different Report this Post to the Staff
