    Nice lamination error. The value? I'd try to sell it for $10 if you're looking to cash in.

    To me it looks like he has a cold and his nose is running.

    Alexey - is the line recessed down into the coin, or raised above the fields ?

    The light appears to be coming from the right.
    And the right side of the feature appears to be lit.
    Hence the feature is raised.

    I also think it's a plating bubble.

    Maybe, but if it is raised then why is the 1 so weak that it is barely visible ?

    Lighting effects can often make incuse look to be raised, and vice versa. Which is why I asked.My thinking is that this is possibly a strike-through error, and that would explain why the 1 is so weak.

    Were it a plating bubble and the 1 was struck directly on top of that bubble, then the bubble, which would be several times thinner than a sheet of paper, should have been broken by the strike. But is not, so that is one other thing that makes me wonder.

    Just sharing my thoughts.
