Southwest inside corner of E in CENT looks like it might have chipped off? And then there are those little curls that look like little strands of copper. What do you guys think?

I can't tell by the picture, maybe a little more magnification in the area you are referring to.

The same sort of circle damage appears at the top of the "C" in Cent, so I am thinking since this coin is heavily circulated, it is probably post mint damage ( PMD).

If there is any sort of damage in the area of an area in question, its tough to make a call whether the damage inflicted had anything to do with the removal of the part of the letter or not. I'd have to say in this example. =

I was able to get a better picture with my iPhone and my new jeweler's loupe. Looks like PMD.
