Pretty sure it's staining, from the images shown. Try a quick acetone bath & see if it cleans up.

Or, given the condition of the coin, rinse gently in water.

Not a lamination.
Looks like some sort of staining.
Laminations usually pertain to solid alloy coins
whereas your cent is copper plated zinc.

Always start a new thread for a different coin.

Just some staining. Should come off in a pure acetone soak.
