    I did not know why everybody prefers using the word common.
    If These were common you would expect to find one in every hand full of change.

    Let's just say there's a lot of them out there and your chances of finding one is good.

    How does a die get damaged in it's concave areas? Did it strike something hard and that damaged the die?

    Could be that the die wasn't annealed properly leaving softer areas that have worn as the planchet metal flows or harder areas that got undercut, then lifted out. (Just a rough guess to throw out there).

    I recall others posting pics of dimes with these types of chips so maybe it was a common (sorry...let's just say there seems to be alot of them out there, and it seems your chances of finding one is good) production problem at the mint:happy:

    Let Me just say, common is one of my do not say word.
    I have found quite a few with chips here and there. The one I'm showing is one in 1000.
    So in my book that would not be considered common.
    Common is one of the saddest words in the English language. saddest_words_HP.jpg :bigtears::blackalien:

    I have found at least Five in approximately Five hundred pocket coins so it really is just a matter of perspective. And unless I ask my perspective can not change.
