<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2790788, member: 15199&quot;]Alurid, I think you are doing it backwards, If there is no doubling visible to you, then is most likely is not a DD. Die chips are usually related to design, and inherent weakness in the same spot on the working dies of that design can cause breakage and fill in of metal ( such as the &#039;BIE&#039; type between the B and E of &quot;LIBERTY&quot; on many cents that often results from such damage), but they can occurs elsewhere also, especially in numbers or letters that have a &quot;Hole&quot; , such as the inside of 0,6,8,9 or similar letters. They do not indicate a strong relationship to a single die, but to the specific year and series, so they should only be used for confirmation AFTER it is determined it is a &#039;real&#039; DD. doing the reverse will drive many &#039;NUTS&#039; and make verifiers Well-to-do on fees. They would not look at the chips until they had confirmed it as a DD. IMO. Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
