coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/20/2021 09:09 am To me it looks like a contact mark. If it were a chip, it would be raised. So either a contact mark or a stain is all I see. Report this Post to the Staff
RobO411 Pillar of the Community United States 2404 Posts	Posted 05/20/2021 9:16 pm Thanks everyone for looking and comments. Yes there's some BIEs that are really quite small. Coop That picture is a bad example for anyone. It does look like a hit or a stain. Here with coin in front of me its different than anyone trying to see what it is by looking at a picture especially a lousy picture. Sorry about that. Here's a couple better ones (I hope.) I put arrows pointing at the cracks that are sorta hard to see in picture. Hope you can see the raised chips on the B & E. The crack goes all the way around. I'm wondering if it's a RIDB or BIE?

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/20/2021 9:23 pm The affect on the devices on the side facing the rim, is not a die chip, but it is DDD. A die chip is when a piece of the die breaks off the coin, that leaves a void, and when the die is used, that area is filled in with the metal, and it is raised above the field/devices/designs. Now imagine, a void on the die being filled in on the coin, rising above. Hope this helps. Report this Post to the Staff
