pinkfl New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 10/31/2021 8:26 pm Hey guys, I'm new to the community and coin hunting in general. I've read many posts on here, even prior to registering, and have seen many cool errors but nothing like these. I'm sure they're somewhere but I've not found them. At first I thought they were some variation of BIE error but now thinking die crack or chips? Also curious of the commonality or rarity. I've seen posts with multiple coins and questions that were frowned upon but since these are fairly similar and the same question I opted to combine. Sorry and TIA. * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! * Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2975 Posts	Posted 10/31/2021 8:40 pm Yep, with Adam_E that all 3 cents have that planchet flaw. The BIEs are die chips which only exist between the B and the E on certain dates, which 2 of your 3 are not . Edited by mrwhatisit 10/31/2021 9:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff
