I collect rabbit ears, so I'd better have a closer look at my 2020 MORs.

Poor quality scan but here's a 2020 MOR with a die chip between the second L and the A of "DOLLAR" on the reverse:  without:

I found a different variation where the die chip is between the two Ls of DOLLAR on the reverse.  2 coins for comparison. Top with Die Chip, Bottom is normal. 2 x Die Chip between LL of DOLLAR.

I just found a die chip one too - between the two letter "L". Very hard to spot and if it weren't for the information on this thread I doubt I would have noticed. Thanks guys for sharing. Makes me wonder how many others I have missed and what other years the same thing may have happened on? I think it adds to the fun of noodling to keep an eye out for these types of things. Thanks again for sharing the info. Happy noodling.

Greetings. I found another variation of Cud/Slim Rabbit Ear on this 2020 $1 JC coin. Very similar to the first one I posted in this thread, but the Cud is longer. I equate this to slim rabbit ear

I have found a 2020 $1 MOR with three chips; two on the reverse and one on the obverse.   Here is another one with two chips on the reverse in slightly different places.  I have also found 2020 $1MOR coins with die chips at various places below the Queen's bust and on it. I don't think I have seen so many different places for die chips on any other year.

Here are some of the coins with die chips along the bottom of the bust. The one on the left has a chip on the bust and the other two have chips under the bottom edge. There seems to be several different positions for the chips below the bust.

Here are coins with four different locations for the die chips below the bust.  Sorry for the poor quality pics. Definitely need a new/better camera. Anyway, hope these are of interest to those who collect die chips and Cuds. These are all going to my O+S collection.

And here is another 2020 $1 MOR with three die chips on the reverse. Must have been poor quality dies that year? Only 6.4 million coins issued but seems to be far more positions for chips in the dies than for any other year of the mob of roos design?
