<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1935806, member: 29239"]Ok I looked at it again and it still remains the same. It don't take a expert to see this is a laminated planchet coin. the area above the E in liberty shows that the big area at the back of the head is still solidly attached in the back part of it and was part of the original planchet. if this was a struck thru scrap area there would be a sunken in line going all the way around this area. struck thru foreign metal scrap pieces can not attach solidly to a planchet . as can be seen in the photo the big area looks to be unattached behind Lincoln's head and raised up a little , if this piece was totally unattached on the other end like a struck thru would have been it would be fell out and gone. this one is a simple one to identify . hopefully someone can learn a little from this thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>EDIT: The area on the rim below Lincoln is PMD[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
