Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 10/18/2019 06:09 am @perch, very nice example of die crack. They tend to start at the corners of the Lincoln memorial because those are areas of higher stress, sorta like this: "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 10/18/2019 11:45 am I see four cracks not three (counting the first picture as just one crack, there are actually four right there). There is actually a lot going on in the first picture. There is the primary crack from the corner of the memorial through the bottom right corner of the I to the rim. Another crack branches off from the bottom right of the I through the top left corner and the the die is chipping at the junction of the two cracks. Another crack has branched off curving through the C and back to the rim by the first crack. Yet another crack has jumped between the two cracks. The area between this last crack and the rim is in the process of chipping away. If the die continued in service nuch longer the entire area between the two crack would probably eventually become one large die chip Edited by Conder101 10/18/2019 12:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
