JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21664 Posts	Posted 04/19/2023 10:12 am Looks like a small die chip or two. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34450 Posts	Posted 04/19/2023 10:12 am Well that could be @otto, but with this amount of circulation wear it instead could just be a little smearing of metal off of the number 2. I see evidence of this coin having been struck from a tired die, so a small die chip on the date wouldn't be a huge surprise.

Dearborn Moderator United States 98847 Posts	Posted 04/20/2023 2:41 pm yes Jimmy, that is a great reference here for this coin. Now I can see the die chips on the 8th feather tip and under the chin too.. [u[] Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
