The lamination runs above the E of ONE to the base of the memorial. Would be curious to know if this is definitely a lamination error, or some kind of die damage or other planchet issue.

Look forward to hearing others thoughts. Quote: an incipient lam seems possible. Nice wordsmithing, frog! Had to look up "incipient". -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 6997 Posts	Posted 12/09/2024 7:51 pm Looks to me like 2 separate issues are located in that area. Possible lam on the left..wondering what's that on the right ? (like a blotted lam before the crinkle? [for lack of a better term]) Report this Post to the Staff
Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10484 Posts	Posted 12/09/2024 8:17 pm Strange for a proof coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6463 Posts	Posted 12/09/2024 8:54 pm I had the same thought as Greasy. The thick bar on the right doesn't quite strike me as a lamination, the same way as that crinkled, folded edge does. Maybe there are two problems happening simultaneously on this cent? Or maybe that is some kind of lamination inside the coin, slowly corroding away and lifting the surface? Report this Post to the Staff
