coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/16/2020 10:18 pm A bit wider shot of the obverse lower should area. I'm not sure if this is a die crack or a struck through debris or lamination? Need to see more of the rim area on both ends. (One or two shots to see if there is a lam/debris flowing over over the rim, peel to the rim, or crack to the rim?) Edited by coop 07/16/2020 10:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

josephm99 Pillar of the Community United States 791 Posts	Posted 07/17/2020 12:11 am The dies on 1950s LWCs were very heavily overused so these are common occurrences throughout the decade. Report this Post to the Staff

I have the exact die crack on my 1954 S penny as well. So your post has answered my Curiosity as well. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff
