Hello All, When I first saw this 1966 Philadelphia Dime, I thought that it was just dirt until I placed it under my coin microscope. The dime looks to be a lamination error, what do you guys think? Just wanted another set of eyes on it before I submit it for grading.

1) save your money
2) where do you see something that resembles a lamination?

Take a look at the pealing of the Nickel that shows the copper. Not a crack like most lamination errors, but an obvious error with the striking of this coin. Right?
Not worth the money for grading even if there were a lamination error.
Are you thinking the line running down through the skull and into the ear and beyond is that?
I’m more inclined to think it’s a scratch with dirt in it.

Not a lamination and not worth sending anywhere.
It looks more like a metal detector find.
The peeling of any part of the surface of a coin is known as a lamination error. Right?
No, not lamination. Even if it was it would only be worth face value.

Nothing is 'peeling' off the surface of the
environmentally damaged surfaces of the time.
It's a damaged, corroded coin - worth face value only.
Please do not spend any money submitting it to any
authentication service - you'll regret it.

On threads like these, would it be helpful for me to post what a real error type looks like?
