CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 11/26/2023 11:17 pm I seem to recall this damage from a 1994 die being posted here but I'm not certain. Any guesses what caused this? The top of the T in UNITED is also affected. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 11/27/2023 09:12 am Anytime you find a coin that has an event in the minting process like this one, is collectable and the mystery of it is worth a valuable education of coin manufacturing. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 11/27/2023 11:17 am Thanks, I guess "mystery die damage" will likely be on the label here.

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 11/28/2023 10:54 pm As others have said, this is die damage. Specifically, these are tiny die dents that were caused by the reverse die striking bits of debris. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 11/28/2023 11:14 pm Thanks Mike, I know die dents are fairly common but I'm not familiar with multiple dents spread out like this.
