1893 die issue on the 9

Post by JJThomson » Sun Feb 28, 2021 11:09 am

Wondering if someone can tell me if the scratched / gouge through the 9 is a die error or post production error?

Looking from above, that whole area of the Reverse has a huge dent where something struck it. It's post mint damage

Thanks Bill - that was the initial thought but was curious.
