Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/22/2006 01:31 am Hi hangokid The detail is a little blury, but from what I see its a possible planchet flaw. If you can get a good clear pic and crop it to just the area around the top of the head,, I would like to see it . Rick Report this Post to the Staff

ndgoflo Pillar of the Community United States 626 Posts	Posted 05/23/2006 3:21 pm Still hard to say with those pics, but I would venture to say that it is a strike through or lamination error. Cool coin, nice find! Report this Post to the Staff

hangokid11 New Member United States 40 Posts	Posted 05/23/2006 6:06 pm what is a strike-through? or lamination error? Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 05/24/2006 09:07 am It's a struck-through error, probably through a viscous liquid, like oil. Struck-through refers to something on the planchet or die at the time the coin is struck. An impression of the struck-through obstacle is left on the coin. Lamination refers to an alloy mixture problem that causes parts of the coin to flake off in layers. Sometimes this happens before the strike and sometimes after. The result is what looks like part of the coin has been peeled away. Report this Post to the Staff
