I would say stage 4 because you have the chip on the (T). This one is not listed yet with images.

I wouldn't call that a BIE. It's really just a die break but a nice one.

I call this a BIE because that is how it is classified on COC.

This one would be under the "RIT" listings, but we seem to call them the BIE variety because that is what is most commonly known.

Did you contact JC about getting it listed with your images for stage 4?

Pete, I'm not saying your coin is not good, it is. I was correcting Thedeathtouch saying it is not a BIE at all. I was saying it is not a BIE, it is another Die break in Liberty.Coincents actually said what I was saying just clearer.Sorry for the misinterpretation.

The general classification for this type of coin is BIE. This can be seen on COC home page. You must click on the BIE link in order to get to the various sub classifications such as ILI, LII, IIB, and etc. Please notice that "BIE" on COC site and my subject line is in quotes to indicate that this is a general classification to be followed by sub categorys.

The sub classification for this coin is RIT. They are not the only resource which follows this nomenclature.

By the way I take no offense over the above comments, nor did I think they were trying to criticize my coin!

(I have sent a message to JC. If, indeed, this is stage 4, then he does not have photos for this stage and has asked for them on his site.)

Thanks for the clarification Pete - never really thought of the variations being sub categories - I learn more and more each day :)

They are all die chips. Just like all the spiked heads are die cracks. The location is the focus.

This one would be the stage 4 (D). Note the small die Chip on the stem of the "T" in 'CENT". It is now listed as LDB6-1953-001D.

Thanks, JC. I also thought that the way the chip on the left wheat progressed was interesting!

Congrats on the listing. I have a few hundred BIE's from the 1950's (2 rolls alone from '57) that I need to go through one day... or week... or month. Seems like such a daunting task. I keep putting it off for roll hunting because finding wild wheats, errors and miscellaneous surprises is a tad more exciting. Not sure if Ill ever get around to it.
