cladding error, or PMD?

Nulte

was looking at this dollar, and noticed the dark strip goes UNDER the letters, and doesnt look normal to me.could the cladding peeled off before the strike, but it kind of looks like a scrape in the first and last photo, but still before strike to me. is it PMD?

Please take a picture of the whole coin. You don’t even state what year it is.
Could be a slight lamination but need more info.

i forgot, sorry, wasnt thinking. the coin is a 1975 or type 1 bicentennial Eisenhower, Denver minted dollar. i cant get the whole coin in picture, the penny, or dime is the largest my scope is able go out and keep any kind of focus on.. i was thinking it got scratched going IN before the striking process happened, you can see cladding peel flap in last photo

If it is a 1975 IKE, then it can’t be a lamination. Also I doubt it is a scratched planchet as the scratch
would be obliterated by the pressure when it was minted. Hard to say what it is without a full picture. Do you not have a phone or camera that you can use for a full shot.

no,i dont have a phone, my kids got one, and ill see ifi can get a whole coin shot or two for you. if you look in the one picture, that has the T in it, the little dark spot is a piece of the cladding face down., there are other little remnants on the coin as well. its pretty neat, im working on an EDS 73 D Kennedy HALF DOLLAR, that is a better coin than ANY pictured on variety vista, in the clarity in the doubling. it doesnt MATCH any but the DDO-001 looks like it could be the one i have, mine exibits no doubling on the LI though, split serif on the B, but if its that there are no pictures of the EDS, and if it gets confirmation of an EDS, , then i would like them to be able to include in their study photos of the coin at variety vista, and coneca. its a stunner !
