I'm not well versed in lamination errors, but I believe that's what might be going on here. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Weight @ 9.66g. Thank you for your time and consideration.

CBavl New Member United States 47 Posts	Posted 01/06/2026 4:38 pm Thank you all for the Welcome. And, for your quick responses! Corrosion makes perfect sense. One of those things where you look at something long enough and then just hope for the best. I appreciate you expertise and will try to get more interesting things posted in the future. I've been a "Morgan person" for a while and changing metals and coin series isn't working in my favor. Report this Post to the Staff
