Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 09/24/2023 5:22 pm Quote: Copper plated cents do not have laminations. Why? Lot of plating issues are present and some nice die cracks. The obverse void showing a hint of copper thats stayed adhered to the base metal. I think rather interesting if thats a die crack running south or more plating ready to flake off. Thanks, Doug.
