antmark3d Valued Member United States 425 Posts	Posted 03/27/2018 7:42 pm Noticed the "5" and the bottom part of the "S". Also on the back on the right of the wheat. Is this a die break? Thanks in advanced! Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 03/27/2018 11:33 pm No doubt about the die chips in the 5 and S. The 9 is questionable because it may be damage, although a chip there would not be uncommon. On the right wheat stalk, I am seeing something else, but I can't tell what. It may be a die crack, lamination or a Retained Cud.
