Pandi Sue New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 08/07/2018 01:10 am Error? I can see it pretty clearly on the date of the obverse of the coin. Always glad to get a second opinion from the community.! Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74707 Posts	Posted 08/07/2018 01:17 am That's Die Deterioration Doubling, caused by a worn die. It's very common. http://www.error-ref.com/die-deteri...on-doubling/ Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

This is caused by zinc corrosion under the copper layer... possibly the plating was split or microscopically holed, allowing air/moisture to get in. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/07/2018 12:27 pm As already mentioned it is Die Deterioration. This forms on the fields. (which moves back for me a new start of the cent single squeeze dies to 1987) It will appear on the right side of the date, left side on LIBERTY and on the tops of the motto. (depending on how the die wears) Edited by coop 08/07/2018 12:44 pm Report this Post to the Staff
