allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 1:38 pm Happy Monday everyone, for your enjoyment I have a 1965 P Lincoln Cent with a strip of copper centered on Lincoln's neck, going over the jaw up to the eye. It appears folded over just below the eye. I am unsure to designate this as a Die Chip (too big) or a Cud but I am sure there is a name for this. I unfortunately don't know the term. There is nothing else significant about the obverse and reverse of this 1965 P. Take a look at the pics and let me know your thoughts! Regards all. Report this Post to the Staff

Maybe a lamination or possibly a retained interior die break? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
