The reverse might be showing a Lamination issue or it's just damage. What do you think the grade is on this coin? VG? If the photos aren't good enough, I am willing to take more. Errers and Varietys.

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24906 Posts	Posted 10/13/2024 02:26 am Very interesting coin, Errers! When a die gets so used that it cracks, many fine details have been lost from it, as you know. Add in some circulation wear and VG is about right. The area on the reverse looks more like damage than a lamination. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73628 Posts	Posted 10/13/2024 02:51 am Thank you Hondo Boguss for your help. I'll get a close up of that area on the reverse later. I'm thinking damage as well, rather than a Lamination. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24906 Posts	Posted 11/28/2024 11:39 am Yes, certainly looks damage - it appears that metal has been pushed to the right. But there does not appear to be a corresponding bulge on the obverse. This was one of the last coins struck using that die!
