 to the CCF, funnymoneyhoney! It looks like you found a severely damaged 1958-D Lincoln Cent.

I'm thinking a lamination issue--possibly. Would love to see the coin in-hand (but that won't be happening).

This appears to be a lamination issue. I highly doubt that it as all PMD.

I'm on team lamination for this one too. Also, welcome to CCF, @fun!

Looks more like a scrape than a lam. It doesn't have the "granularity" I associate with lams. A better photo may change my mind.

Definitely not scrapes. Not seeing displaced metal or any signs of PMD. This is a Lamination.

Definitely a large lam. You can see the weakly struck bottom of the E and top of the T in the depression of the lamination. Those wouldn't be visible if it was caused by a scrape.

It does appear to be a large lamination peel that is mostly missing except for the sliver on the bottom left of the "anomaly" that looks folded over. Being able to see faint outlines of the affected design elements (like ONE CENT), is a good indicator that this is more than a scrape.
