1 cent 2002- die chip/extra dot/extra metal (obverse and reverse)


Common die chip/extra metal 

Die chip error coin happens when a part of one of the dies that strikes the coin breaks off. This broken die strikes resulting in a new raised feature (looking like a blob) on the surface of the struck coin. Die chip errors are reasonably common and not really fetch premium unless the error is obvious.
