johnhenry9009 Valued Member United States 244 Posts	Posted 03/09/2024 6:46 pm While I was looking through my pocket change and I found this 1974-D with what appears to be three die gouges at approximately 1:30 o'clock on the reverse. I found it cool. So , I just wanted to post it. Report this Post to the Staff

johnhenry9009 Valued Member United States 244 Posts	Posted 03/09/2024 7:32 pm What is a Die Dent? I have not heard of that yet. Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8751 Posts	Posted 03/09/2024 7:54 pm Thank you for the closeups. Here is a link for Error Ref and a pic below of some I have found. Die dents will take many shapes, forms and sizes and can be from different things falling on and damaging the die. LINK https://www.error-ref.com/die-dent/ -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8751 Posts	Posted 03/09/2024 8:32 pm Alright. Give me until tomorrow. The pics I posted, I already had on this site and may have others on here. Regardless, I will find some that are also zinc based Lincolns that look a little different. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
