John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 08/28/2012 5:28 pm It is in an odd spot to be a die chip. Is it raised or indented? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
rocktowngal Pillar of the Community United States 594 Posts	Posted 08/29/2012 1:01 pm John, somehow that penny must have slipped back into the pile I had already searched through. As soon as I go through them again...I will answer your question. Darn...I hate that that happened. Maybe I'm suppose to look through the pile again...I may have missed something the first time. Who knows! Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 08/29/2012 5:42 pm Thanks for checking. Here is a suggestion, when I post a photo of a coin or just post a question I put that coin aside for a few days...just in case. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/30/2012 12:55 pm Looks like a bag mark from another coin. Raised on the coin: die issue. Indented on the coin: damage or a struck through error. It just depends on what it looks like. On a struck through error it would have a normal reverse in that area. Damaged it would be slightly bent or raised on the reverse in that area. A coin bag mark may/may not show on the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
