Here's a worn 1912-S Liberty nickel, with a partial LIBERTY in the headband, that has laminations on both sides. There is a spot behind Liberty's bust and a long lamination running through the entire reverse from about the 12:00 to 6:00 position.

It's not a great looking coin that has some scratches from the years of circulation it saw, but it is a 1912-S.

I just thought I'd share it.

Maybe it's the lighting, but those obverse scratches look deeper than general circulation wear.

An interesting coin @paul. Do you know if laminations are common on this series?

Key Date, no premiums for the lamination, if anything they hurt the value on key dates.
