Dad_Ohs New Member United States 29 Posts	Posted 05/02/2024 8:55 pm So thanks to anothers post I see that I have a ' Ridge Ring', Love learning new terms, around the penny. My question is this; As the 'L' in Liberty is in line with the Ridge Ring, would this be an 'IIB' error or just wrong place at the wrong time? LOL! Thanks in advance! sorry the images are not as clear as I would like. Report this Post to the Staff

That way, we can better understand the full context of the coin and what we should be looking at. Report this Post to the Staff

Unfortunately my microscope is cheap and I don't have the ability to do full shots unless I use my phone, which isn't very good either. I will try to do better! Quote: There has to be a die chip to be a bie. Never said 'BIE' I understand BIE error, I was referring to the 'Table' missing on the 'L' making it look more like an 'I' hence the term 'IIB' Hence the joke about wrong place wrong time, at the end.
