Thanks for the clarification!! This seems like it could be a fun hobby.

Here's a humorous location for a Die Chip to occur. Called the "Pooping Horse" Die Chip. http://goccf.com/t/314105

As noted, it is a die chip and a fairly well known one. It would add a small value to the coin. However, one was just sold as a totally bogus "inverted 1" on ebay for $36. People should do more research before buying something labeled as "one of a kind."

If you have a circulated coin and some clay you could press it on to a common coin and make a copy. Then you would have the reflection of what a die looks like. (except for the rim. Never use clay on a collectible coin)

Ive learned a lot from the community over the last almost 2 years but I really think this coin is a rpm. If you look at some other rpms for coins within a couple years of this run there are some that dont look nearly as plausible as this one snd yet are still considered such. Just my one cents

I know exactly what you are talking about coop. Its not the mintmark I'm talking about, its the raised portion coming off the bottom of the 9. To me it looks like either an old mint mark, a mm that jumped once when the guy was punching it into the die and it landed way off course. Everyone has said they are positive its a die gouge. It exactly fits the corner of a D mint mark for that year range, its a touch thinner because it was punched on the bounce and didnt get the force of a full hit. and if you look at the corresponding line that runs through the 9 you'll notice that line is incuse. If that mark I'm talking about was caused by a gouge then the line that continues extending on from it would be raised through the 9 and not incused, which it is. Think about it, if you accidentally punched a mint mark over a date, the punch wpuld.push the metal away and it would fill any negative spaces on the die in turn causing a small incused ridge on the 9.
