I bought this off of ebay for 16.95 and 0.78 for shipping. It was a bit pricey, but I wanted it for my collection, so it was worth it to me. The massive Die Chip is located under her neck. I'll include a picture of one without a Die Chip for comparison. https://www.ebay.com/itm/128034814784   Errers and Varietys.

Thank you, jbuck. The ebay seller ended up selling all 68 of them, including me buying one. He made a fortune selling all of them. Errers and Varietys.

Quite a sizable die chip! As discussed on the prior thread, it might even be large enough to be considered an interior dime break, although dimes are pretty small. Still a neat buy, congrats. =)

Thank you both, MNP, and Brandmeister! You're right, Brandmeister. It could be large enough to be considered an Interior Die Break. Errers and Varietys.

I picked up a few of these as well. There was some discussion ( https://goccf.com/t/491391&whichpage=1 ) about the design causing the chips. I have only seen this massive chip on the Philadelphia dimes, but my view is limited to what is on ebay and the two rolls I purchased. This begs the question as to if it was only one die that degraded and didn't get caught. I do have a few Denver dimes with the bulge but haven't seen the massive one like what is on the Philadelphia ones. I'm labelling mine "Decapitated Liberty" - fits better on the 2x2 Edited by PlumCrazy814
