[QUOTE="MontCollector, post: 3740615, member: 85496"]Welcome to CT!! well yes and no. now let me explain. From what it looks like to me is this is a Grease filled die error. This is what caused the 1 not to be present. When cleaning the dies off sometime grease fills the devices on the die. Keep in mind what is raised on a coin is incuse on the die. This error was caused by the MINT (not factory) and yes left the mint this way. The 9 on the other hand is hard to tell due to the clarity of your photos. This could be part of the Grease filled die error or it may be damage. If it is damaged, this happened AFTER it left the mint and is called Post Mint Damage or PMD for short. Either way this kind of error is kind of common. Fun to find but has no real value. I hope that cleared thing up for ya.:)[/QUOTE]
