    I see a well circulated 100 year old cent with some rim dings.
    What the heck does "WIRED" mean anyways?

    There might be a strike through there, or damage, if there is something still embedded there the photo isn't good enough to show it with certainty. All I can tell is there in a long thin dark area there.

    We all we HAVE to go by are the photos. If we aren't to judge by the photos then we can have NO opinion whatsoever, and then what's the point?

    And as for being BSers, how much experience do you have with coins? I have nearly 56 years and while errors aren't my specialty I have always had an interest in them and in how coins are actually produced in detail, which will give you a very good idea of what errors can happen in their production. There are others on here with my level of experience or more, and people here who actually DO specialize in errors. We don't BS. That is unless someone comes in with a know it all attitude who wants to argue with or bad mouth people who most likely know more, often much more, than they do.

    I hope you guys are reporting the unnecessary language.

    Also.. Don't quote the foul language :facepalm:

    @Brian Reynolds That may indeed be a Retained Wire, but your photo needs to be crisp like the following (Retained Fibers) so that we can make a more informed decision:

    You did note I edited the language and didn't quote it exactly because it was foul language.

    I think my New Years resolution is to pass on responding to this poster's posts.
