    Look at the right hand ledge of the tower on the bottom coin. There is a big blob there. Could this be a die chip?

    That would be a die chip. Blob yes, but not big just small.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    A what? Where? Somebody circle it so we can see what you're seeing, because it isn't immediately obvious to me.

    Die chips are extremely common, and not worth a premium unless they are huge and obvious.

    The top quarter is a regular quarter. The bottom photo is the one with the chip. The chip is on the right hand ledge of the tower. If you expand the picture you will see it.

    I see 5 protrusions inexplicably arising from the spinning wheel. This design is completely incomprehensible to me.

    Which one are you referring to as "the tower"?

    The tower is the middle protrusion

    Okay, now that I see what you are talking about.... this is a very small die chip. It is not significant, and will not garner a premium. Die chips are extremely common.

    From where I sit, it's right click on an image, I save it to my desk top, I open it from my desk to. You should/might see something like this:

    Click on the image for arrows. After you create the arrow or whatever symbol you want, don't forget to save it.
