Spence Moderator United States 34564 Posts	Posted 06/18/2018 01:37 am @bate, both of these cents look like the die had a partly broken post on the bottom half of the letter B. Not a BIE die chip, but still kinda interesting.

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 06/18/2018 01:40 am That is not a BIE. It appears to be a die chip or the post used to make the lower "hole" in the letter B was partially missing. Here is an example of a BIE error: http://goccf.com/t/308888 And for reference: http://cuds-on-coins.com/Lincoln-cent-bies/ Report this Post to the Staff
