I'm very new, few months at this so the answer might be very simple but I could use the advice Report this Post to the Staff

Abhmlclnvmphnt New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 06/18/2023 6:26 pm Ok I didn't think it would have gotten that much flattening. So the die break is that an increase in value or not I'm not asking for an appraisal just things to look out for in the future. Yeah it's a lil beat up but here's the coin as a whole just for good measure Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5675 Posts	Posted 06/18/2023 6:37 pm to CCF! I'm not seeing any die chips or die breaks. Just some flattening and misshaping of the numbers from circulation hits. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 06/18/2023 7:25 pm @abh, the shape of the number three in the date is different due to mechanical damage. We see cents with the last digit in the date or the letter L in LIBERTY flattened like this quite often. Usually we ascribe it to being damage from a Gumball Machine. However it happened, it is not a mint error.
