coinee Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 10/30/2018 10:36 pm I received this one in change and the United States obviously has an issue that I'd say came from the mint this way. What kind of mint error would this be? Any premiums? Thank you! Edited by coinee 10/30/2018 10:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74346 Posts	Posted 10/30/2018 10:58 pm That's just the die showing its age. It's called Die Deterioration, which is caused by the die being worn down, from striking planchets at the U.S. Mint. It's not an error, since it's part of normal wear and tear of the die breaking down slowly. http://goccf.com/t/317950 Errers and Varietys.

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 10/31/2018 11:45 am It is a form of Die Deterioration. And the almost missing rim makes me think it is also probably a Mis Aligned Die but none of you images show the opposite edge of the reverse to confirm that. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/31/2018 1:08 pm The lines are called die flow. They continue to the rim of the coin. The devices prevent this from happening. This happens when the die ages. Edited by coop 10/31/2018 1:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 10/31/2018 2:39 pm Might be worth a buck or two if you marketed it at "Severe Die Flow Error" on ebay, since this one is pretty severe it might bring a premium just like how very severe Machine Doubling errors sometimes bring a premium.
