Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 08/12/2019 06:33 am @jpmind, when the part of the die that forms the inner loop of the number 9 breaks off, subsequent cents struck with this die will show a similar die chip. This is quite common and does not add to the numismatic value of your Wheat cent.
