A couple of hard to find errors that I just got back from PCGS.

Dropped letter "C" by CENT.

This one is a little tougher to see but there is a dropped "S" in the "E" of UNITED.

    I can not say that I have seen those errors before. I can not imagine how many have passed through unsuspecting hands.

    Looks like there might be a bit of retained fill on the C.

    One other question....

    On these errors, can the dropped material also be metal? In which case it would be a retained struck thru?

    If I understand the question correctly, that would be struck through a struck fragment.
