Coin is "well worn", but, does this appear to be a lamination error?

Thanks.

Yes, it looks like a lamination to me.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Thank You!!
Trying to make sure I'm seeing what I hope I'm seeing!
(I see a lot of stuff on ebay, that even I think is outright wrong!)

Check the same place on the reverse. Laminations often go straight through the planchet.
