Any idea what it is anyway? * Edited by Staff to clarify the topic title. Please put as much info in the title as you can, they are very important. * Report this Post to the Staff

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 08/15/2023 09:19 am Could be a chip or just a hit, I am going with hit because I think the chunk of metal in the middle has been moved from part of mm. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97437 Posts	Posted 08/15/2023 1:41 pm I'm with Frog and that Odd Guy - a possible die chip or just damage. Collecting since 1972.

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 08/15/2023 8:05 pm Board one; As stated above the mark in the middle of mm is a piece of the mm that was pushed in the middle by a hit or also stated above it could be a die chip. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97437 Posts	Posted 08/15/2023 9:26 pm Can you post up a larger up close image of the MM? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Bored one2014 Valued Member United States 171 Posts	Posted 08/16/2023 11:27 pm A little bit better. I'll keep messing with it. I'm not entirely sold on it being a die chip or whatever. Seems a little too defined. But I'll certainly consider your opinions. And I appreciate them all. Wish I could have you see what I see. Report this Post to the Staff
