[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3470928, member: 77814"]The Y, just like the R is a result of something hitting it causing damage. Even though your coin is "nice" here's a quick list of damage, die deterioration that I quickly see ... Ridge Ring (die problem) starting on obverse around 3/4 of the coin various damaging hits around the obverse and reverse rim damaging hits on the left wheat stalk in various places damaging/wear marks on right wheat stalk and various hits across all surfaces But it is a nice looking 1958 cent good for filling in those dansco albums. DDO/DDR is the outcome of someone human causing a problem. Die Deterioration is the outcome of actually just using those die to mint the coins. Over time metal wears out - the longevity of a die is max about 3 days.[/QUOTE]
