We just found a 1977 Lincoln Penny that has a lamination error as you may see in the following photos. Also we are sending a similar photo of a PCGS certified same kind of error. Please advise. The photos are obverse and reverse image, a PCGS actual coin graded with same kind of error and the obverse of such error. thanks     *** Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. *** |

The 71 looks like something is stuck on the coin,not a lamination...IMHO. John1  |

The 1971 appears to be stained and has nothing in common with PCGS coin which is a much more profound error.

Sir, if you see, the lamination extends thru the neck and part of the chest. Also there is a lamination at the bottom and next to the date. Why do you says is not as profound. I would say it is even greater.
Thanks

Interesting, but not convinced it's a lamination issue. Closer-in photos--sharp--taken at a shallow angle might help. Thanks.
An accurate weight--to two decimal places--might be good to know.

Try soaking it in 100% pure acetone. John1 |

that does not appear to be a lamination - lets start slow and see what an acetone soak will do here.

Sir we already cleaned with acetone. Eventhough coins are not ment to be cleaned. IT IS A LAMINATION ERROR SAME AS THE OTHER COIN.
Thanks

Hey now, no need to start yelling at me (or us) If you think that you better than us (after all you have it in hand) and we cannot see what you do. Your images are FAR from ideal for us to trouble shoot. How about a straight on close up - not at an angle. Maybe your next stop is to a coin store and show them so they can see it in person, or maybe if you feel so strongly about it - sent it in to get professionally examined by a Third Pary Grading Service ( TPG). Which ever you decide, just please come back here and fill us in with the results. BUT! No more YELLING! |

Nope, not a Lamination error. Just a stain. Also, your coin is nowhere in better shape than the graded Lamination error coin. Save your money. You're going to be disappointed.
Errers and Varietys.

Sorry. I apologize that was not my intention. I am a 65 years old person and please forgive if loose my temper. We are sending a new photo we three squares in black. Square no1: You may see part of the lamination that extends from the neck to shoulder and chest. If you look carefully you may see the gold line that defines the shoulder-arm region. It start on top of the lamination all the way down. Square no2: Next to the 1 in 1971 you may see traces of lamination. Square no3: You may see lamination overlapping Lincoln coat and rim.  |

In the following photo, lamination is entirely on top of Mr. Lincoln's head  |
