<p>[QUOTE=&quot;peachymargarita, post: 146279, member: 2858&quot;]Hello VirginiaRebel, welcome to coin talk. Looks like your coin has a filled die. Assuming it hasn&#039;t just been buffed of the coin, the S on the die clogged up with &quot;mint goo&quot;. Since the die used to make most coins are incuse, or concave, this allows the metal to flow into the die causing a raised image. Ta-da, a coin is born. However when a die, or part of a die, fills up with anything the result is something missing on the coin. Make any sense?:thumb: </p><p>So if the S was not buffed or filled of that is what happened. As far as being a legitimate error, I would call it so. Some do not. </p><p>If you are looking for something similar to this I&#039;m sure some on this forum could post pics of their coins with filled dies. Hope this helps?<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Happy hunting,</p><p><br /></p><p>Michael[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
