Bullnuke Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 05/17/2010 8:54 pm Found this 39 and not sure what to make of it. The obverse seems to have some wire? strike-through around the neck, lamination on the cheek and extra metal at the back of the neck and in front of the chin. On the reverse more strike-throughs and possible areas of delamination (dark areas of the photos).

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 05/17/2010 10:59 pm I don't see any evidence of lamination there at all. It's either a struck through from the mint with a lot of wear thereafter or damage put into the coin before most of its wear. Either way, the wear takes away a lot of what could have been the determining factor. What I can say is that it's definitely not a lamination. Report this Post to the Staff
