    Error Lamination | 1939 P Rim to Rim Lamination Error

    Here's another 'urn I came across this morning - a 1939 P with a rim to rim lamination error.


    The lamination error starts on the left below "IN" in the motto, and runs into the back of the head,


    continues across the throat area and exits under the chin,


    then continues down to the top of and around the second "9" in the date to the rim.


    These lamination errors that tranverse the coin from one side to the other are really neat!!

      THAT'S AWESOME! I really like it. You should give it a cool name like "the guillotine cent," or "Lincoln at Sleepy Hollow," and see what you can get for it on ebay.
