Hi All,

I'm new to the hobby and bought a few rolls of nickels to hunt through today. I ran across a 1946 nickel with several cracks going the whole length of the coin. I thought they indicate a die crack; however, a post with a similar coin (from the same year) refers to it as a lamination problem. (https://goccf.com/t/83765&SearchTerms=1946) What can you experts tell me about this coin?

Thanks!

it looks to me like a lamination issue, but I don't know the specifics. Pretty cool, though!
