Found this 2000 Lincoln D Penny with this blob on the Lincoln memorial. Would this be considered a Inferior Design Break?

Iit could be a die chip, but please do me a favor and try to depress it with the tip of a wooden toothpick. If you can then it is a plating bubble. Thx.

@Bobby Thanks! I thought that it was a die chip but the literature that I read said that die chips leaves cracks or openings around the area (in which I knew from my last post )and has no direct connection to the rim. I'm thinking that the definition only applies to that specific definition to the rim of the coin.

@Spence Nope. It was hard as a rock and didn't give way or collapse.

Ok yep seems like not a plating bubble then. With respect to die chips and the rim, I would argue that they need not be connected. This definition looks more like that of a Cud to me. Cuds always involve the rim, but die chips can occur anywhere.

@Bobby @Spence Thanks! I guess I'm 2 for 2 in the die chip department today. 1999 & 2000 both on the Memorial on the same side and in almost the same area. Lol!

Does not look like a die chip to me. Plating bubble/debris.
