<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kevin Mader, post: 3898209, member: 106826&quot;]Hi Jake -&nbsp; as our fellow enthusiasts point out, your anomaly is likely the result of a chip in the die.&nbsp; The area around/in-between devices are historically weak points in the die and after repeat use, it can chip/break.&nbsp; The 50&#039;s were notorious for chips and breaks since the dies were used past the point of exhaustion.&nbsp; Most chips aren&#039;t of any particular value.&nbsp; In fact, most collectors will find them to be a distraction and pass on buying coins with that condition.&nbsp; However, a small group of collectors find interest in them and for some particular chips (for certain dates), there is broader collectability (e.g., BIE cents).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
