    Ok, I'm stumped again. Found a BIE on a 1954S but I also noticed something just to the left of the 9 - is that another die chip?

    Thoughts are welcome

    Now here's the interesting part. What is that to the left of the 9? And inside the 5?

    A very nice BiE error. The 9 and the 5 is minor damage.

    Hmm, it's raised... but I suppose a hit could have sheared off part of the 9 and moved it left. Thanks CN - that was boggling me.

    Looking closer, I'm thinking it was Lincoln's bow tie. ;)
