So I was looking at my one morgan, 1904-O MS64 and I was checking out the die cracks on the reverse. I wanted to see what other die cracks members have.

Mods if there is a thread, lock/delete this one. If not, post some die cracks!



Sorry for image quality. Taken with my phone. Maybe if you squint a little?


In hand, you can see "TATES" "OF" and "AMERIC" are all connected by 3 separate cracks on the reverse.

Civil War Token(store card) struck with a die that was only a few strikes away from shattering

Two 1954P Washington quarters with identical triangular breaks in the 9 forming three radiating cracks. These two quarters were purchased several years apart, I won the first one from my local shop's bid board and I bought the second one at a coin show.

Something from outside my realm of Morgan dollars.

Guys those are awesome. That civil war token is a mess but in a good way. The 2 quarters are neat that they were acquired so far apart.

Dave, I love that 3c nickel. great die cracks and the coin has a lot of eye appeal too.

My 1837 Capped Bust half dollar has a crack running along the bottom left of the reverse, from UNITED to 50.

Bit like Biokemist's CWT, I can't see the reverse die on this hand-struck shilling having been used for much longer!

Post a die crack? Here's a whole bunch!

The die crack trailing from "America" helped me identify this Trade dollar as an 1875 s/cc

Not quite the "Baseball" cracked reverse, more of a "fire breathing Eagle";

I absolutely love both of those nickels oih82w! Everyone else these are awesome. I recently bought a Two Cent Piece with a minor die crack. Love it.
