spaaz9 Valued Member United States 97 Posts	Posted 03/16/2012 08:24 am I really don't know the difference between the two. And is it considered just a damaged coin? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/16/2012 09:52 am The post that would shape the center of the 9 has broken off and chipped away to leave the area in question un-shaped. Report this Post to the Staff
spaaz9 Valued Member United States 97 Posts	Posted 03/16/2012 10:11 am Are they collectible? I'll be honest... Aside from doubled dies, missing mint marks, rotated reverse, incorrect planchets, and really off center strikes, I don't know what's a collectible error or not. I know they'll try to sell anything on ebay, so I don't use that as a reference if I can help it. Is there someone out there that just has to have a 1960 with an unshaped 9? Thanks again for all the help and advice folks! Report this Post to the Staff
CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 03/16/2012 10:13 am This kind of die chip (filled letter, digit or mintmark) is fairly common, so it wouldn't carry a big premium. Report this Post to the Staff
