What kind of error is this?

1957-D wheat cent with half th


e "B" in LIBERTY filled. How rare is it? And is it worth getting graded?

that iswhere a chip has broken off the die

small chips like that are common enough they aren't worth anything extra

asks a lot of questions

not some much of a big deal. would be helpful to read more and use variety vista for the suspected DDO/R

Question are good.

Asking the same questions over and over without learning from the answers is less good.

The raised area in the B of LIBERTY is caused by a die chip.
These are sometimes called a BIE error, because they tend to occur on the letters B, I, and E.
These are common in 1957 and 1958 wheat cents.
I found several when I was a kid.
A fun die state to find, but not valuable, because there are so many of them.
