picc Valued Member United States 74 Posts	Posted 06/17/2022 2:10 pm I recently acquired this Indian Head cent. It has a very peculiar line below the 9 in the date. Has anyone ever seen anything like this or know what variety it is. It is extremely lustrous and might even be a proof. It has like 50% wire rims on both sides. Let me know what you think!

RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1028 Posts	Posted 06/18/2022 5:05 pm Looks like a die chip to me. If you can find other examples with the same die chip, Rick Snow might give it a variety. I say might as it's not a variety I think many would hunt for. As for proof, I think this is a circulation strike. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/18/2022 6:02 pm Oddly-shaped for a die chip. Forward your question and images to Rick Snow (rick@indiancent.com) and he will know for sure. Edited by Coinfrog 06/18/2022 6:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 103934 Posts	Posted 06/19/2022 12:06 am Last year Rick was getting sued by an investor. He had for a while shut everything down. I'm not sure what the outcome was for that though. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
