I found this coin in a roll and it looks, for lack of a better word, wrinkled. Is this a lamination error? It makes President Kennedy look incredibly old. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
die deterioration http://www.error-ref.com/?s=die+deterioration+ This is a great site for different types of errors and non errors such as the coin you are holding. I like your search gloves
Super interesting!! Thanks for the help and for the coin error reference site! Do you think it's worth sending in to get graded? Or is this type of error super common?
die deterioration is considered damage by collectors and not worth grading, it will not grade as an error....
Well, sort of! It is not considered an error, but it is not considered damage that a grading service wouldn't "straight grade". It's just not worth paying the price for grading. Chris
