Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 4:37 pm Nope! The second part of the title is a lie. This coin comes to us from Crazyb0. It is an unlisted LDB, but the damage prevents a submission to Cuds on Coins, so it gets a mention here. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 5:02 pm Druu, I'm not so sure that isn't just damage from my "freeing" the coins stuck in the swelled tube. After looking through the three rolls of 1960P's for any other DDO / DDR and similar BIE's and finding not one of the cousin coins...? The surrounding scratches, including the vertical one on the right of the vertical bar of B leads me to suppose a misplaced bit of metal. Take a point to it and see if it moves, I forgot to do that before sending it! Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 6:10 pm The last sentence of Crazyb0's response indicates he sent it to Druu who is now the rightful owner of that masterpiece. The close-up isn't quite clear enough for me to tell if it's damage or a real BIE.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 6:13 pm It is a BIE, but the coin is damaged. Report this Post to the Staff
Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 10:01 pm Damaged BIE. New image incoming soon. That's what I get for shooting with standard phone camera instead of using the magnifier app. Edited by Druu 05/13/2017 10:48 pm Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 11:09 pm Thanks for the pics! It looks a lot like LDB36-1960(LD)-001 but, not exactly. Maybe a different die state? http://cuds-on-coins.com/ii-f-multi...f-die-break/ In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff

Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 05/13/2017 11:49 pm Nice catch, Spruett! I think you're correct. When I went to check the listings earlier, I just saw no single breaks listed for 1960. I didn't bother checking the LDB36 listing because I failed to notice the chip in the T. At least it (probably) isn't a new LDB. Report this Post to the Staff
