Spence Moderator United States 34456 Posts	Posted 08/08/2018 8:30 pm @om45, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please confirm that this linear defect is raised above the surface of the coin? When I blow it up, it looks more like a scratch to me, but that would be incuse rather than raised.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/08/2018 9:56 pm Is it raised or incuse? Raised die crack. Incuse coin scratch. Looks like the later from what I can see, but the image is small. Report this Post to the Staff

Oscarmike45 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 2:49 pm Unfortunately my coin micro can not zoom in that far to see if it's raised or incused. Thanks welcome and for all the help, I will report back shortly. Report this Post to the Staff
