Laminations?

 

Yup.

 

i agree with the major crack down the middle of lincoln.but the rest of it has me puzzled a bit. the 2 on either side of the center one are exactly the same width. they are the same width as the wheat stalks on the reverse. i will post some more pics alot coser to show the reverse. it has 2 extra wheat stalks inside the original ones. the spot on the right top of cracks on obverse matches his shirt collar almost perfectly.

 

here is closer pics. it is very faint but on both sides there are extra stalks

 

Yup...not seeing them. I do see the big lamination on the "N" and "E".

 

i figured as much, i guess my real question about it is, is to what extent does lamenation cracks distort the coin. i myself , i can see lettering from the reverse on the obverse and the oppisite also. just puzzling to me.
