Can anyone help me out with what’s going on with George’s lip to his chin…would this be considered a die break? Any help would be appreciated..

Greeting`s, this is more common than people may think, and some call it Drooling George. Just a Die Chip. "herpes George" as well but I`m not fond of that one.

Thanks but I got a question is it a die chip which in my mind would be small chip but this extends almost all the way to the chin..I have a few of the other ones your talking about but it’s only at the corner of the mouth vs all the way down..thanks in advance

As the Die wears, the cavities for the devices and design begin to break down" Deteriorate" A die Chip will begin in some cases small, then subsequent coins that are struck by that die show the Chipping propagating further along.

So what your saying is a die chip will turn into a die break eventually such as the way that die chip is working it’s way down towards the chin? Eventually than once that breaks off the die is retired than correct? Thanks for the help I greatly appreciate it..

Chips are surface defects brought by Die wearing, Die Cracking is subsurface to the surface and are mostly thin and jagged.
