jfisher103 New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 10/03/2015 02:48 am I have coin to the coin experts to seek an opinion on this Wheat cent I ran across. There is a slug of metal joining the B and E in liberty on the obverse and I am not sure how one would classify it. I doubt its worth a premium, but it did strike my curiosity. Thank you for any advice. I apologize for not including pics. I am having trouble getting them to upload. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 10/03/2015 10:34 pm Welcome to the forum. "BIE" cents are classified as Die Chips. A chip in the die, results in a raised area on the coin. To upload pics, click "reply to topic" at the top of this page. Try to upload your pic from there. If it's too big, resize it and download. Then you can upload it from your downloads. Report this Post to the Staff
