    does this show a die crack?
    also the right hand of the Monticello building looks different to the left at the top. thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    Based on those pics I don't see a die crack and as far as the building it could be possibly a die chip lets see what others have to say.JMO

    Could be a small Lamination issue.

    The roof of the Monticello has a die chip. and the other looks like a lamination as Paddyman said.

    How is a die chip caused? Does that mean it's an error

    In technical terms it is an error, because it was not struck the way it was intended. In reality though it is the result of an over used die. these ar worth a small premum, especially if they can be attached to a variety.

    You seem to be full of knowledgeable information and I have just started collecting and looking at different kinds of errors so I just wanted to see if you knew if this is a good find? And what kind of errors are within that era. Regards chris
