1982 small date copper lamination and double struck error?

Just found a double struck 1982 lincoln cent with a large lamination error. The memorial is double struck and you can actually see two lincoln statues in the memorial from both strikings the second strike is about 30 degrees to the left

Hi Mikey, sounds like an interesting coin but without pictures people can only guess and speculate.

 

Would love to see a pic!

 

Please post pics! I collect coins of year '82, would love to see your find!

 

Brings back memories when we tripped at Kent State!!! The tall library was scary!!!

 

Hi everyone, umm; please give me some time for pics. I figure I will post tommorow. yeah, there is a memorial double struck to the left with a huge lamination error around the reverse.

 

Here are some pictures; they don'

You will love this coin then!
t do it the best justice

 

There appears to be lettering behind the lamination in OF and the AM in America

 

Part of a die clash maybe? I dont know; a huge double die? I mean the coin has no indentions but actual 3d detailing of a second memorial and lettering

 

I also have an off metal strike of an 82' I posted it here but no one believed me; its being sent to NGC for cert

 

If you look closely in the second die or strike, you can see a second lincoln statue!

 

It looks like glue to me.

 

Thats whats kind of strange; there is actual metal striking here though; does the mint use some sort of lamination substance?

 

There is actual metal lamination error on this coin as well; you would really have to see it

 

No, the copper is plated on the zinc-copper core.

 

That's just one of those that ya gotta see in person...still don't get a good sense of what's goin on with the pics. Is the second Lincoln memorial incused or in relief?

 

1982 could go either way?
