    20190708_162548.jpg This coin has several die brakes. On the O in Monticello, under the N in cents and next to the designers initials, but this one is the most interesting. I swear it looks just like a cat in the door way. I cant find any other examples of this online. Any idea if collectors would be interested or what I should ask for it if someone is interested?

    I'm still fairly new at all this but I don't think an image of a cat has ever been part of the minting process, which leads me to believe it's post mint damage.

    It could be a die chip or some foreign matter on the coin - it's hard to tell from your photo. It's cute but nothing special.

    Cant be damage. It's a protruding image. It's clearly a die chip, or possibly from a lamination error on another coin, when seen in person. It's not actually a cat. It's just in the shape of a cat. I cant even fathom how pmd could cause a 3 dimensional cat shape. Lol.

    The coin is very clean. Its definitely part of the coin. It's a small die chip, I know, but its interesting and this coin has quite a few. I forgot to mention that it has one over the E in Liberty on the obverse as well.

    I was actually trying to earlier, but kept getting an error. It may be my connection. If I cant get one up tonight I will in the morning.

    Agree that it's a die chip. Generally, die chips do not being much,, if any premium. If someone offered a buck for it, I would take it and run.

    Still think it's a cool piece

    If you got an error on a photo, but could still post text, it may be your photo is too large. Jim

    Sorry. We had storms here all day. Maybe I could sell it to an obsessive cat lady coin collector?
