Good Morning!

I have just received my 2010 Silver Proof Set today and on the reverse of the James Buchanan coin there is a notable striking issue. I am by no means an expert so I was hoping someone could shed a little light on this. Is this indeed considered an error? Is it common? Does it increase the value?

Thanks for the advice!

Looks like damage. I would probably send it back.

I'd need better pictures, but that looks kinda like a Retained Cud?

I would not send it back. Most have a collection of mint damaged coins and other rarities. I love to find stuff like that. This was the last mint error I found and I'd never send it back. Check out Van Burens forehead. And yes, it is on the coin.

Is that a crack running through STATES?

Can you get a better shot of the area in question?

1) DO not send it back.
2) How about a close up?
