Even the lettering dies get worn sometimes. Enjoy

Minor Point: You are talking about EDGE lettering, not RIM lettering.

Thank you kindly for your reply. If you prefer do call it edge that's okay with me. I myself prefer rim. To each their own. Again thank you for your reply.

Interesting. I had noticed some of the circulated dollars had faint lettering, but did not know some came from the mint like that. Thanks for sharing!
Rest in Peace

Can see no chips on the rims. Believe the circulation wear showing on the rims also on the edge and edge lettering.

Believe I read the edge lettering is applied after strike on business issued coins. On proof coins it is applied at the time of strike by the collar. Thanks, Doug.

It seems a few members are little bit upset, because I use the term rim instead of edge.
I totally forgot in NUMISMATIC having a free will is totally unacceptable. And to believe in something else is totally unacceptable. As members have pointed out the proper NUMISMATIC terminology is (edge) lettering. So now that that's established let's just move on.I have provided other photos, that indicate the letter chips.
