yontan Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 07/09/2016 02:10 am I noticed this coin on ebay, and the die crack was so large it intrigued me. I don't ordinarily bother with 1900-H. But I just received it and I like it. Report this Post to the Staff

GregJG Valued Member Canada 257 Posts	Posted 07/22/2016 7:02 pm Am I correct in saying this is a "die break" instead of a die crack as it's very strong and goes rim to rim? Trying to ace the terminology :) Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21661 Posts	Posted 07/22/2016 7:21 pm GregJG- This is known as a large "die crack." A "die break" is when the die separates resulting in a full or Retained Cud. Report this Post to the Staff

Hounddog Bill Pillar of the Community Canada 1224 Posts	Posted 07/23/2016 12:42 pm Here's a link to a previous discussion on a coin like yours. Late die states of this coin are minted with a retained broken die. https://goccf.com/t/259376 Cheers Bill Report this Post to the Staff

yontan Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 07/23/2016 3:31 pm Wow. Now I have to go through all my other 1900-H's and see if I have any more. I'm going to post an 1859 with spectacular (2) die cracks/breaks later today. Thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff
