Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 12/21/2017 12:46 am Looks like a die chip. Can you get a closer image of the 9? And here is the CCF Free Image Optimizer to help crop your images. Please preview your post/pictures to be sure they are rotated correctly. Report this Post to the Staff
Mrzllewellyn Pillar of the Community United States 1901 Posts	Posted 12/21/2017 12:47 am Yup its a die chip in the 9 and also a die chip in the bottom of the R in liberty very common for that date. Next time try cropping all the stuff out but the coin and rotate it right side up Like this Edited by Mrzllewellyn 12/21/2017 12:51 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/21/2017 7:01 pm Actually when the die chips, the metal breaks away from the die, leaving a void that is not formed. The chip is showing the void as a negative leaving a raised area on the coins. This void can get larger as the die crumbles away or remain the same until the die is retired.
