I didn't see this one on CoC so sent some photos off.

This looks like a VLDS so maybe this Pre-BIE never formed into a full BIE before the die was retired.

Very nice example. Is it an rpm as well (north)? Your pics are so clear it looks like an extra curve between the upper serif and the curve.
The die crack @ E seems to run into the B and affected the lower portion.
I've become infatuated lately with coins exhibiting filled letters, numbers, or MMs (or partially filled).
This would be a fun one to come across for my collection because of the B,9, & 5!
The earliest filled MM ive come across is 1919s.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Thanks for the comments! Nicely toned BU cents like this take good photos so I wont hog all the credit :)

I think that is just lighting tricks on this BU coin.

Yes, this coin is a chip lovers dream. There is an internal break starting in the skull and also a chip on "R". Under the tip of the 9 is another chip starting.
