evandon New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/09/2023 7:46 pm Greetings. Not sure what this is. Looks like it could be a severe case of lamination but I'm thrown off by the silver underneath as Wheat Backs are mostly copper as far as I know. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/09/2023 7:49 pm Too much going on to tell for sure what was on the coin/if a lamination was present or not. The alteration would turn the coin into a cull coin now. Report this Post to the Staff

Second, it looks to me like an extra layer of metal was applied to this coin, such as aftermarket plating, but this is now largely peeled away from the original coin. I agree it is a cull now.
