Any void that covers less than 1 square millimeter is a die chip. In between is a gray area. http://www.error-ref.com/?s=interio...e+break Report this Post to the Staff

Copperround Valued Member United States 64 Posts	Posted 11/02/2016 10:00 am The link Pete2226 provided describes this as a rare event. Than you for the link. Report this Post to the Staff
Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 11/02/2016 10:38 am The "rare event" is when the break exceeds 4 square mm. This one does not appear to meet that criteria Report this Post to the Staff

Copperround Valued Member United States 64 Posts	Posted 11/02/2016 4:28 pm So if it is not big enough, it is a die chip? This is one I found in circulation, what about this coin indicates it was cleaned? What do you think it was cleaned with? Thanks everyone! Report this Post to the Staff

Copperround Valued Member United States 64 Posts	Posted 11/02/2016 5:02 pm Thank you Coinfrog. What do most people use to clean? Why clean and put back into circulation? I'm truly surprised by how many coins have been cleaned. Also surprised by how many coins are thought to be altered. Both actions are mentioned frequently in this forum. Definetly eye opening.
