    This is just struck by a worn die and is not an error. Sorry.

    @Mileshamdaman12 how do you define "an error"? That is a serious question.

    If you define an error as anything happening during the minting process that is short of absolute perfection, then every coin ever produced is an error, including all of yours.

    If you define an error as something that might possibly have added value, then basically no coins are errors, including none of yours.

    The coins that have added value are rare. They have added value BECAUSE they are rare. Your odds of winning money on a lottery ticket are much higher than your odds of finding the same money by looking at random pocket change, sorry.

    If you noticed it is throughout all of the reverse devices not just the ONE CENT. Clear sign the reverse die life is reaching it's intended limit.
