Mrph12 Pillar of the Community 689 Posts	Posted 11/15/2018 11:17 am I found my first shield penny error with a die chip on front and back. On the front of Lincolns head and on the shield it self. on forehead is something not sure what to call it. Please let me know what you thank. Report this Post to the Staff

Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4404 Posts	Posted 11/15/2018 11:55 am I'm pretty sure that's a die chip and die crack on the forehead, it's a pretty common spot for them. I can't really see the reverse that well either. Report this Post to the Staff

Mrph12 Pillar of the Community 689 Posts	Posted 11/15/2018 12:40 pm Thanks so much for everyone's feed back. I agree with the die chip and die crack on the forehead. I just need to get better equipment. I will be upgrading to the USB microscope. Thanks so much I really needed that. Report this Post to the Staff
