Well that's an interesting one, I can't answer it myself but I'm sure a lot of the pros would be happy to. Cool find though either way if it's not a error I bet there's an odd story behind it. Thanks, Jacob
Hmmm. Okay I would wait for more knowledge people other than myself... but I believe that could be an over polished die. But the rim makes me wonder if it's got a rugged clip. May I see the reverse?
Not a rugged clip.... hey @Rick Stachowski i think you told me about my dime that had a partial edge clip. I forgot what you called it.
1 - The Rim has damage, no clip of any kind 2 - Not an Over Polished Die 3 - It's just a Neat Die Break, Die Chip
Free Standing Definition: It’s a rare event when a die chip is so large that it warrants being designated an interior die break. Interior die breaks should not be confused with “cuds”. By definition, a cud is a die break that includes the rim and at least a little bit of the field. Interior die breaks have no direct connection to the rim. They may have an indirect connection via a die crack or split die. Since voids left in the die face by natural fractures span an unbroken size continuum, there is no clear boundary between a “die chip” and an “interior die break”. Any void encompassing an area of 4 square millimeters or more qualifies as an interior die break. Any void that covers less than 1 square millimeter is a die chip. In between is a gray area. Die chips are commonly encountered in all denominations. In Lincoln cents they include “BIE” errors, “plugged” 5’s and 9’s, and “bugs in the wheat ear”.
