Congratulations on being smoke free. Wishing you some strength and motivation to keep racking up those days
It's a common hit or contact mark. Not an error if any kind. How can it be another LIBERTY? Did you notice that it's smaller than the LIBERTY on...
Never assume it's an error because you don't know what caused the damage. There are an untold number of ways a coin can be damaged but only a...
Damage (PMD). The raised areas are displaced metal around the edges. Not an error

On a slightly related note, here are some threads that show coins with PMD cuts that appear to be raised lines after being circulated. This is...
Found this post in the archives. Note: The coins discussed are actually 1941 and the last 1 has been shifted by a rolling machine. It's also...

You're correct. Die Chips (Internal Die Break). It's not an RPM. Not sure if it's common on proofs, but I don't believe it adds anything to the...
