Die break

Would you consider the E on Liberty a die break in this 1984 D Lincoln? If so, would the pay off render having this graded?


I am fairly new to Numismatics so any connoisseurs in the business I would greatly appreciate your experience and advice
Thank you

    No and no.

    It is a plating bubble, very common on cents from this era. Current value: 1 cent. Value after paying $100-200 to get it graded: 1 cent.

    If you don't like that answer, please show any similar coin that sold for any similar value, with or without getting slabbed.

    @Valinda11 . Welcome to the coin forum. It is a learning process everyone has to go thru. what is worth slabbing and what is not. My best advice is to study and or look at as many coins allready in slabs in order to gain a better awareness of what you should be looking for. Feel free to ask questions but know this; coin collecting takes continual learning, pictures are so important and I'm sure others will recommend some online and book reference materials. good Luck.

    Please crop your photos before posting. This will increase the size
    and give us a better view of the coin. We don’t need all that background.
    As far as your cent goes, it looks like a linear plating bubble but a better
    photo would confirm this.
