Is this a Lamination error?

    I was looking at a 1964 dime I had found in some rolls today, when I spotted this on the back. I thought it was PMD, then I notice how random the movements in the lines were. I decided to change the angle a it, and I saw it continued to the side! Thoughts? WIN_20200313_18_01_54_Pro.jpg WIN_20200313_18_02_48_Pro.jpg

    Maybe. The coin could have taken a hit and chipped or shifted the metal.

    Looks like maybe a small lam.
    Cuds are die breaks that start from the edge of the coin and go inward into the design like this:

    Maybe. Any ways you can think to figure this out?

    Looking at mine, I would say from the slightly lifted nature of the area, mine is likely a lam error. Thanks for the help properly ID this coin!
