    My dad found this nickel which I believe is a lamination error, but thought it may be a struck through error as well. I would appreciate a confirmation. Thank you! 20230407_195348.jpg 20230407_195338.jpg

    Not an expert, but it looks like one to me.

    Probably not a strike through, I'd say.

    But wow, there are a LOT of laminations on this coin.

    Yes, and I like the spread of it to nearly on top of the dome.

    Yes. Lamination errors were common on the nickel. Something about the alloy.
