coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/20/2022 5:26 pm Note the border around the area? That was a die crack, then some of the metal was breaking away from the die. On the raised area you the border, is where the crack/void is on the die. The center hasn't broken off the die, leaving a void that would be a die chip. Just part of the die aging process. It is a die event. (The die was normal before this die event happened) CoopHome: What is the die event that creates a RIDB=retained interior die break? A crack on a die, leaving a void that shows filled in on the coins struck with that die Report this Post to the Staff
