What is it?

Hi guys, I have this 1943p Wartime Jefferson with some kind of issue? It does look like the "peeled lamination" effect? What do you guy's think? Thanks.

    Delamination is different than a lamination? :*

    Lamination is the term generally used to describe this type of planchet defect.

    It's a messed-up nickel, Joey.

    That is PMD Joey.... Those nickels are not laminated. And yes, the proper term for when such a defect exists, is delamination - the term lamination is technically incorrect. Cheers, RickO

    Couple of you guys say, " PMD". What is this guy mean then?
    Tried to paste his explanation. Couldn't.
    Planchet errors/flaking
    He said, that these were resulted "before the strike?"

    All too common in war nickels. They were clearly having alloy issues.

    lamination refers to layers and in the case of single alloy coins the metal detaches from itself, probably because of impurities in the mix. in a strange way, it is an accurately inaccurate use of the term.
