bamajack1 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 05/11/2020 10:27 pm I just looked up what a die chip is. Would this be a one off or would there be many more like this? I may not totally understand what it is. Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 05/11/2020 11:05 pm Looks more or less like an older die, with a die crack running down the vertical bar of the T, a die chip on the right tip of the T and a die chip in the wheat. All are common on wheat cents from the 50's in those places. And yes, once the die chipped every coin will show the same chip, and some get large enough to be cataloged by cuds-on-coins.com Report this Post to the Staff
