Hi everyone, I noticed this funny thing on this 1961 dime.

What would you call the error on the date? is it inverted? I have never seen this one before.

Thanks much

Looks like it may be a die chip.

Hans Zoell called this one a 'die crack' and catalogued it as FH284n (inverted 7 in date) back in 1970 (5th edition catalogue). Your coin also has elements of P284t (N of CANADA), which is also in the catalogue.

Oh wow, what's that catalogue you're referencing? I've always gone with Charlton
