A double dip chip on this 1999 obverse. One makes the B in LIBERTY look lowercase and the other is on the top left corner of the second 9. Too bad it's got some nasty zincoln rot going on. Still fun to find.

I like that one Walkallnite. Make sure to protect it and put it in a 2x2 coin flip to protect it from further Zinc Rot and other damage.

Thank you Es/Vs. Do you recommend a way to remove the greenish crud before putting in the 2x2?

You're welcome. To remove the greenish crud, try using Acetone. It will not harm the coin at all. You can buy it at the hardware store. Just make sure it 100% pure Acetone and not nail polish remover.

The mark under the 'O' looks incuse from the image provided. Note how the opposite side of that area would be showing light if it were raised. The side illuminated on the side your shot was taken makes it look incuse instead of raised as a chip should look.

That die chip is raised. Not incuse as mentioned. It may look incuse,but trust me it's raised.
Rest in Peace

Well, I don't think it's a chip. I looks more like a plating issue. I thought it was interesting. It's still in the proof set.

What make you think it's a Deep Cameo? It's in a regular proof set.
