<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kevin Mader, post: 4110952, member: 106826&quot;]Hi Christopher - die chips as pointed out by our fellow enthusiasts.&nbsp; You&#039;ll find that there are certain dates/decades prone to have overworked tools.&nbsp; The 50&#039;s are notorious for running the dies until they catastrophically failed.&nbsp; Although they may distract some collectors from buying/hanging onto them, there are a number of folks that enjoy the uniqueness of the look, especially if they occur in an interesting spot like the BIE cents (many of these are from the 50&#039;s).</p><p><br /></p><p>I occasionally see a dented car/tailgate that catches light or reflection differently, and while not authentic to the designer&#039;s intent, they end up being interesting (to me anyway).&nbsp; Find what you like...and keep it![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
