Hi guy's, On this 1964 Jefferson proof, what is this that appears to be some sort of "lamination"? Mostly on the obverse but one tic on the reverse as well. Thanks for any info.

Lamination is what you’re thinking of. In this case, I’d say delamination.
Yep ... nice delamination.
I spelled it wrong! Lol. What is the difference between lamination than delamination?

Your coin has some debris on it. Usually, this is found on Proofs when the plastic gets old and "bonds" to the surface. Comes right off with Goo Gone whether plastic or glue. Acetone will melt the plastic and will often require a further "clean-up."
The clue to the easy ID is the COLOR.
Thanks, I'll try.

Then put more on a Q-Tip and roll it over the area. You are going to need to remove the Goo when you are finished. Acetone works.
Looks like a TDR FS-801?
Yep.
Likely the proof set got heated and the mint cello packaging partially stuck to the coin.
I have seen this many times.
Yep...looks like residue that can be removed with acetone or Goo Gone...Let us know how it goes... And the correct term for what you thought it was is 'delamination', 'lamination' is when two or more products are sealed together through heat, pressure or adhesives. Delamination is when they come apart. Cheers, RickO
You guy's are talking about the tic I called on the reverse, correct? Not what's on the obverse.

Are you kidding or serious?
Oh, I see where you're thinking.
Any difference? I acetoned it!

--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.the term "lamination" is accepted in Numismatics for this condition but to my way of thinking it is technically wrong.
in order for lamination(actually delamination) to take place something needs to be a laminated, that is to say constructed of layers which are adhered to each other to form a structure. think of the plywood example given by 56morgan. if that starts to come apart then it delaminates.
a coin planchet isn't constructed of several layers of metal adhered to each other, a laminate, therefor it can't delaminate. it is probably a term of convenience that desrcibes what it looks like and the Hobby has accepted it.
