Shorzy Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 02/14/2023 4:13 pm Hi All, I found this mark on a War Nickel that might be a strike through? I have added pics of the mark, as well as the edge and the obverse in the same area. This almost looks like a Roman arrowhead LOL. Any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96317 Posts	Posted 02/14/2023 4:59 pm what does the obverse look like in this location? But for now, I'll go with a worn lamination. Collecting since 1972.

Shorzy Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 02/14/2023 5:10 pm I have found many lamination errors on the War Nickels (extreme) so far but most of the peeling (?) or pieces of metal covering the areas are still intact. Would this be an example of a lamination issue where the metal has long ago come off? Report this Post to the Staff
