I cant find anyone talking on the web about the error I found on the reverse of this quarter. The "A" at the end of America is solid with no cut out. Does anyone have knowledge of this type of error that can be shared?
It looks like a simple Die Chip. Nothing major. A Die Chip occurs when that little area on the Die used to strike a Blank Planchet breaks away (Chips away) leaving a small void. So when the Blank Planchet is struck by the die the metal from the planchet flows into the void.
First, welcome to the neighborhood @Jacobr0808 ! It's not unusual for people new to collecting errors having no idea what a particular error might be called. So, when you start a search or Google your description, you probably won't find it listed. It doesn't mean that it could be rare. It doesn't even mean that it could be an error. The word "error" is such a broad classification, and there can actually be dozens and dozens of different types of errors that could apply to a single coin. ~ Chris
