SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 8:57 pm This example does continue across the edge and does a 45 to the left but my old camera won't pick it up. Lamination can run across the edge? Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19146 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 9:00 pm Excellent lamination feature. Yes, laminations can extend into the rim. I've come across a few over the many years. Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 02/28/2023 11:29 pm I am sorry to contradict my friends here. This it is not "Lam". This coin has Metal Age Crack. I thing error-ref.com has this specification in one of theirs pages. The signs are on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/01/2023 11:35 am Die cracks don't peel. A lamination can peel. Note the peel on the area NE/SW on the ONE CENT devices. Not a die crack. As mentioned it is a lamination issue. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 03/01/2023 7:32 pm I still call them laminations. Report this Post to the Staff
SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 03/04/2023 9:56 pm Lamination is likely. A strong hold on this coin remains. Maybe someday I'll list all my numerous lamination coins for sale but its doubtful. Report this Post to the Staff
