Skippy72 Valued Member United States 447 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 7:53 pm Good evening everybody and happy Friday! What started out as noticing what looked to be like a got to the "G" I'm God turned out to be a lot more. The G also appeared to have an underlying Gbut actually had a crack running through it, which I then noticed the rest. The crack ran from the word "Trust"over to the G and from Trust down to the date. Before the crack got to the G in God, it intersected and ran south (2 cracks behind Abe's head) along back, splitting and going to "Liberty" and across Abe's neck where it came out at his chin and tie. The one from his tie ran above the date and through the date, where it dropped south. Cracks through and above Liberty. Also (Sorry) it seems that everything was struck prior, and underlying west. Except for the date, where you can see the underlying "4" fairly easy. Sorry about writing a book, but I was just trying to word everything to where you might understand all my gibberish. Here are some images and I hope they were enough to match what I'm trying to explain. Thank you! Edited by Skippy72 04/05/2019 8:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34450 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 7:59 pm @Skippy72, those are pretty good pics, but I'm not sure that you have a massive die crack there. From your pics, it looks more like surface staining to me. It will be interesting to see what others think. Added: you beat me to it again @E&V!

Skippy72 Valued Member United States 447 Posts	Posted 04/05/2019 11:54 pm They are definitely cracks in this coin. Not stains. It's just a shame that I cannot figure this Focus out to show you guys and you can only go off of what I present to you. They are even on the reverse side through the O in the word one and multiple other areas, like from the top of the N and E in ONE where they head Northeast about a quarter inch and then they intersect to continue east across the reverse side of the coin. I will show you images of.... Report this Post to the Staff
