Todd1900 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 12/14/2017 11:55 pm I have a 1857 Upper bank of Canada penny with a die crack showing as others have found under the "A" in "CANADA" but it also has a big bite out of one side. is the missing side post mint damage ( PMD) or possibly a defective planchet minted error coin?

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 12/15/2017 03:46 am Broken off after mint, rest of coin is fully struck, you'd notice loss of detail, similar to Blakesly effect on opposite side of coin, like how much metal is missing in a clip. The denticle's go right to break. Might have been a weak planchet that when used as a prybar...broke. Report this Post to the Staff
