1892 IH cent off center with no denticles on the obv and a few on the rev.
Link to Heritage auction coin.
https://coins.ha.com/itm/errors/189...tion-120115#

Shouldn't the denticles be visible if this were an authentic coin?

Aren't the denticles part of the Obv & Rev. die and not the collar die?

Pete is correct.
PS - After downloading and photoshopping the image, I noticed the "brightess" button on the Heritage site.

Sorry about that. Got in a hurry and just posted the link.
Here are the images from Heritage Auctions.

(ps. If you click on the photo at the link you should be able to get it to enlarge.)

In the enlarged view, there is a Brightness button. After all of the years of using Heritage, just noticed that today.

Never noticed it either! Anyway, I wish Dr. coop was still around to explain stuff like this.

I assume it's a combination of circulation wear and the fact that it was struck out of collar (decreased striking pressure due to outward metal movement).

I wouldn't be concerned about it.

Thanks everyone.
Looking a little closer after posting I would agree with Tanman about the circulation and maybe a low pressure strike.

I just assumed the denticles were supposed to be at the same level as the bust and it looked like they were missing.

All is well with this coin, which is only a smidge off-center and suffers from a fingerprint. Not a worth a big premium to me in this grade especially.

Currently at $60 with buyers premium. Definitely not worth it to me.

It's a cool coin, but definitely not worth paying 60 dollars, in my opinion.

Tough date for errors - what'd it end up selling for?
