JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21786 Posts	Posted 08/13/2026 09:40 am I'm thinking more of a die chip. The only varieties on an 1898 10 cent are on the face. Report this Post to the Staff

okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5629 Posts	Posted 08/13/2026 11:35 am The die chip on the A might have started out as a Die crack and then just chipped out. All that I see on the "C" is possibly another small die chip. Edited by okiecoiner 08/13/2026 7:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff

rjd1402 New Member Canada 17 Posts	Posted Today 1H 12M ago A die break. Its actually the second die break this obverse (O98T6-3) developed. Attached is an image of the propagation of die breaks for this obverse. On your coin you can just make out the die break adjacent to the right of 'I' in DEI. If you are curious about other Canadian Victorian coinage, I am slowly building a die library at my Substack entitled "Classic Canadian Numismatic & Notaphily Research" It can be accessed by cutting a pasting richarddebruyn.substack.com Report this Post to the Staff
