Meztido New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 05/10/2022 5:48 pm Greetings - I hope this isn't a problem but I'm uploading Two Cents, same year and mint, here as I've finally been going through quite a collection I've accumulated. Also, I've been making a habit of putting coins I think are very nice or with possible errors in coin flips to keep track of them, so hope the pics aren't too terrible quality. Anyways, here are two 1944 D pennies that I think have lamination errors but would like some outside input. Thank you for your time. Penny #1 Penny #2 Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/10/2022 6:02 pm Nice LAMS. Best to take pics of the coins before putting them in 2x2's. Also looks like they need an 100% pure acetone bath. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Meztido New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 05/10/2022 6:17 pm Finally, I found a true error/flaw! And @John1, for sure. I've read up on acetone and seen a few videos on how to do it. I'm just a bit apprehensive as I don't want to accidentally damage the coin somehow. Report this Post to the Staff

Second coin show that was hit on the pointed part by you and due to the alloy and age exfoliate. Also this coin show carbon deposits on the date. To take out those carbon points I will try first methyl alcohol or white alcohol. The acetone act more with polymeric materials. Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 05/10/2022 7:11 pm One more issue to check for is the ever popular D/S over mintmark. Indeed, those are lamination issues there, kinda cool, all of them are unique. Report this Post to the Staff
