Nice Die cracks Tom. I don't find many Shield cents and there sure is a lot on your 3 cent piece.

Radial die cracks, and circumferential ones around the beads, are common in Canadian Large Cents. This one starts with a radial at the second A in CANADA, branches clockwise around the beads for a couple letters, and more heavily counterclockwise where it meets a second radial between EG before continuing all the way up to the first A in GRATIA. The other radial through the R in VICTORIA is a standalone.

The first one I posted was an 1896, too. There are some spectacular cracks noted in that year.

I am glad this has finally moved from page 6 because I kept getting stuck looking at the Ike.  Looking good everyone.
