JohnWayne007 Pillar of the Community Canada 1186 Posts	Posted 09/27/2021 12:51 pm This is also what some refer to as the Eyes "variety", I personally don't consider die chips as a variety since they usually occur during the overall life of the die usually accompanied by deterioration. A lot of the dies used for 1966 nickels ended up looking like this, even a few doubled die reverse examples also show these exact die chips. Edit: SPP-Ottawa beat me to the punch!
