Lamination errors occur when there are impurities in the metal, and they peel. In fact, they occur pretty much solely on copper cents. You will...
Here is a nice strong repunched mintmark variety. You can clearly see the spread to the south. Listed as coppercoins 1951D-1MM-001. Enjoy, and...
Dang it Jeff, I was going to say that! :yes:
Yes, this is a good example of a lamination error. Nice find!

The pictures are good. Unfortunately, after comparing the mintmark location of your coin to that of 1DR-001, I can confidently say that yours is...

I would agree that one side was sanded/ground down, but as noted weight would tell us for sure. The only way something like this could happen in...
The scope came with internal lighting. Technically it's a scope designed for use in a science classroom, but it works fine for coins. Sure beats...
