What do you think is the error? I don't see anything.

 

I see several stains, a couple of nicks and a few things that classify as PMD. If your looking at and around the word cent, it's PMD.

 

thanks for reply, I see above "on" in one and the third and forth column in shield and it isn't dirt, and other coin "n" in cent and 6 or 7 column in shield, and above "n"

 

You have to bear in mind that these coins are mostly zinc which, when used, produces a lousy finish on the coin.

thanks for reply, I agree, I never wash coins but this one I did with warm soap and water and I believe that is not dirt above "on" and in shield

 

Looks like a possible die crack just above the "N" to me.

 

thanks for your reply, what pic are you looking at

 

The most recent photo. It looks like it might be a die break, but I cannot tell if it is actually raised or if it is merely a black line. There is definitely machine doubling in the "O" and the "N", but that is fairly common.

 

does this show better

 

Still hard for me to tell. Look at it under a loop or magnifying glass. If that line above the O and N is raised then it could be from a cracked die.

 

thanks, is this pic any better or worse

 

On the first set of photos a small die crack above the N in One, the rest are PMD.

 

thank you, thanks also for having patients with me, trying to learn as much errors as I can, I make a lot of threads during the day but I am absorbing great info
