Reverse picture is blurry, but I think one side is floating, while the other side is connected. Also, what's going on, on the obverse? Lamination or damage?

I'm much more interested in whatever is going on with the obverse than with a trivial die polishing issue (the cause of the so-called "floating roof"). Can we please get clearer photos of the coin? If what I'm seeing on the obverse is a lamination, it's easily 2x2 worthy.

@Thump please post a better picture of the FRONT of the coin. The big line down the middle in your first picture is what we're all interested in. Even if it is a "floating roof," that designation is just a made up error used by a bunch of youtubers to generate clicks, but if it's a lamination it may be a very nice error coin!

I would have thought that you would be more interested in the obvers more than the reverse due to that nice lamination.
and to see any 'floating roof' we need better and closer images, also an image of the FG would be good too.
