John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/13/2022 07:00 am Looks like a die chip or maybe a depressed gas bubble. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 07/13/2022 08:44 am I agree it is a gas bubble. To confirm this, look at the center of bubble, it is different material than what is on the rest of the coin. It also looks like a die chip above bubble. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96451 Posts	Posted 07/13/2022 1:56 pm I'll go for a die chip on this zinc coin. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/13/2022 2:27 pm Not a mint mark, but rather a die chip lodged between the 9 and the 8. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/13/2022 6:56 pm Note no splits on that area. I agree it was a large die chip or break on the that area. Note it is taller than the devices. So the fields are showing chips (voids) on the die. Make the strike higher than the other devices. Report this Post to the Staff
