latman100 Pillar of the Community Australia 1040 Posts	Posted 08/22/2009 02:49 am I think so, but it is a little hard to be sure from the picture. Does it look like the metal is peeling up and away around the edges of the faults? If so, then yes. Report this Post to the Staff

markn Pillar of the Community Australia 1295 Posts	Posted 08/27/2009 6:59 pm Peels and planchet flaws are about the most common form of error in Australian pre-decimal coins. They are caused by flaws in the metal itself which causes layers of the coin to peel off before being struck or more commonly, after they are struck. The extreme form of this error is when the entire coin splits in half, known as a split planchet. Report this Post to the Staff

tights24 Pillar of the Community United States 2254 Posts	Posted 09/08/2009 07:49 am Prestigecoins, is the coin splitting in the middle? If not, my guess would be that you have an acid dipped coin, and not a half planchet. Of course, I am going by what I know in regards to US coinage and the not so rare acid bath that appears on a lot of Lincoln cents during a chemistry class. Report this Post to the Staff
