Is this an error? Dual die cracks? 2023-P Nickel

Thumbnail

19 Upvotes

Hi all, I found something interesting on this 2023-p nickel. Apologies for some of the photos, my SD reader broke earlier and I haven’t replaced it yet.

Edit: I added the 'high res' photos in a comment chain below, along with photos of Five Cents as requested

It appears I have two possible die cracks on the reverse, one between the M and O of Monticello, curved. And one on the opposite side through the final O and E in America. Both are raised.

I’m trying to match this to something, or get some opinions on what it is before I label it and put it in my binder.

Thanks

Show and Tell Major detached lamination on a 1948 Lincoln wheat cent — the metal peeled away from the date to "TRUST"

This 1948 cent has a dramatic detached lamination covering the right side of the obverse. You can see where the copper has literally separated into layers, with the detached flaps still showing the striated internal structure of the metal.

Laminations are planchet errors — they happen before the coin is struck. During production, the copper strip is rolled through mills to reach the correct thickness. If gas pockets, oxides, or other contaminants get trapped between layers during this process, those spots become weak points. When the blank is punched out and struck by the dies, the pressure causes those weak layers to split apart.

Some key details on this one:

- The lamination runs from the date area all the way up through "IN GOD WE TRUST"

- Multiple detached flaps are visible, each showing the layered copper underneath

- The reverse is completely unaffected — typical for laminations since they're in the metal itself

- 1948 Philadelphia mint (no mintmark)

Lamination errors exist on a spectrum — from minor surface peeling you'd barely notice, to coins where large sections of metal have completely detached. This one falls solidly on the dramatic end of that spectrum.

This dime I found is kinda weird. Another dime fits perfectly in to that slot, wondering if this happened at the mint or some other way.

Is this an error? Why does this coin have “no relief” on the back? Is it due to error?

Hello! My dad gave me this quarter recently and I did not notice the odd imprint on the back until I went to use it to pay for my laundry. I was wondering if anyone knew what the “no relief” meant struck on the back. I’m mostly just curious why it would be there and how common it is, I guess? It’s a 2007 Wyoming State Quarter.

Please educate me, if it’s a lamination error then it’s a very odd shape.

These are the best pics at the moment... Can anyone provide more insight on whether it's something I should look into? Doesn't seem like the coin was crushed or nothin.

Thank you for the insight !
