steve123 Pillar of the Community Canada 805 Posts	Posted 02/09/2014 12:01 am I don't see this listed under that coinsandcanada site. Die chips on "E" of "CENTS" and on "AD" of CANADA. The one on the "E" is well visible to the naked eye. Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9866 Posts	Posted 02/09/2014 12:10 am Not die chips. The coin is rusting beneath the plating. The edges of the letters are the weakest point of the plating, moisture and air work their way in and...... "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 02/09/2014 12:19 am Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9866 Posts	Posted 02/09/2014 01:14 am Those appear to be rust as well. Unless and until I see an identical, coin all such "chips" in photos of plated coins are suspect as plating or corrosion issues. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 02/09/2014 01:30 am Report this Post to the Staff
