First off, I'm very new to coin buying and selling so please forgive any errors in basic knowledge! So I was taking pictures of a 1999 broadstruck Lincoln when I noticed something shiny around his nose. Then, I noticed it between the pillars on the reverse side. Is this an additional error or simple wear and tear on the coin?

Thanks in advance!!

That would be a weird place for wear marks....especially in between the pillars.

The is where the plating has split. The extra spreading without the collar in place stretched out the coin splitting the plating. Very nice error.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! Glad to hear my find is a good one! Monetarily speaking, could you give me a ballpark of its worth?

A couple listed now on ebay are 1981-19.99 and 1999 with a chip out of the edge of the planchet for $35 BIN. So I would think in the $20-25 range.

Looking at ebay sold listing $20-$30 is average but this one went higher.
