Jaypowell40 New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 05/20/2019 06:04 am Is a worn die strike pretty common, is it worth hanging on to or should I throw it back in the penny jar? (Lol) Thank everyone for taking the time to answer my question! Report this Post to the Staff

The area you described is called " Ridge Ring". The following site describes it at the bottom of the page. http://www.error-ref.com/design-dev...ng-die-wear/ Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75683 Posts	Posted 05/20/2019 12:04 pm It's called Die Deterioration, caused by a worn die issue, from striking a ton of planchets at the U.S. Mint. It's a very common issue for that year. No added value. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
