<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iGradeMS70, post: 1513244, member: 29109&quot;]Looks more like a cracked/defective planchet...</p><p><br /></p><p>But it basically occurs in the same stage of production, and their often considered one in the same - &quot;defects&quot; and &quot;laminations&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>But, typically, when I think of a &quot;lamination&quot;, I think of the metal impurities only having affected the coin&#039;s surfaces - obverse and reverse, and not including the coin&#039;s edge. And as far as a &quot;cracked planchet&quot; goes, I&#039;ve always assumed that the depth of the defect is a factor.</p><p><br /></p><p>This defect is relatively deep and has expanded to the edge of the coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Whatever you&#039;d like to refer to it as, it&#039;s still a genuine mint error... nice find! :thumb:</p><p><br /></p><p>-Brian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
