could just be over polishing of the die or grease filled, i wouldn't consider it an error, but some might...
I ( think ) and maybe someone can correct me but sometimes the missing VDB is the result of abrasion or an abraded die coin?
I will give you my 2 cents on this sublect. I have found a Lot of coins that are missing stuff. Letters/words, partial. or no date, even blank planchets before and after the upset mill. They are all nice conversation pieces but none are going to be worth much. Don't get me wrong I like them, and keep them. The coin that is going to be valuable is the coin that has something extra minted on it not the absence of a feature. A doubled die has extra impressions on the die from the doubling. A die clash has extra features imprinted on the die. A struck through is going to have additional shapes, and textures, a doublestruck. Cud, broadstrike, etc.... All have added features although some original features may get destroyed. That is my Zen philosophy on coins minting errors
Pretty much non existent is correct! He passed away in 1924! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_David_Brenner
Pretty cool information there. I have seen pictures of him before, but never that article. Thank you for sharing.
