CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 09/24/2015 7:00 pm I found a 2007 P dime a number of years ago and it had a blob (die chip) right where the initials would have been. Stumbled upon several posts here from several years back and turns out there's more than one. Can die chips happen in the same location a number of times on different coins? Or is it just a one time thing? https://goccf.com/t/70533 https://goccf.com/t/227435 (little larger than the other) (052) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed .com/Coin_Help_Blog/us-mint-error-coins/ (look under Die Chip section) It couldn't possibly be a Cud, could it?

Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 09/24/2015 8:01 pm When I die gets chipped, losing bit of metal, it stays that way until the press is shut down, so every coin struck by the die after it is chipped will have the same Cud (or it may change on some coins if the die gets more damage) Report this Post to the Staff
