Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1300 Posts	Posted 09/25/2024 12:12 am I picked up a couple of circulated wheat rolls from the 1920s. This is the 1st of 2 laminations I found. Report this Post to the Staff

Liag49 Valued Member United States 103 Posts	Posted 09/25/2024 09:20 am a little help please... When I first saw this I thought of a die chip. What indicates that it's a lamination? Report this Post to the Staff
igwt79 Pillar of the Community United States 1175 Posts	Posted 09/25/2024 09:59 am @Liag49 A die chip is a small piece that fell out of the die into which metal flows https://www.error-ref.com/?s=die+chip A lamination (de-lamination), retained lamination, is when a metal flake falls off the coin, usually due to an impurity in the alloy https://www.error-ref.com/?s=retained+lamination On Seeker_101's posted coin, you can clearly see where the metal flake fell or shifted from on the coin northeast of the flake by the rim. Additional confirmation of this being a lamination issue on your coin is the woody appearance, also due to an improper alloy mix https://www.error-ref.com/?s=wood Edited by igwt79 09/25/2024 10:00 am Report this Post to the Staff
