Sap Moderator Australia 16879 Posts	Posted 10/22/2007 07:44 am Looks like there's a major die crack developed there, stretching in an arc from the O in OMN around to the N in IND; that's about ninety degrees. There's also a crack through the N in IND, out to the rim. I'd say this die was dangerously close to shattering when this coin was struck. Nice find! Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
