Still so much to learn. Here's a 2012-P LSC with a BIE (Die Chip) that I recently found. Report this Post to the Staff

seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 01/27/2016 12:06 am From what I understand, they are squeezing the dies together to make coins now. This is less stress on the die than the old method when they would hammer the one die into the other. This makes die breakage alot harder. Report this Post to the Staff
