MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2004 Posts	Posted 11/13/2021 6:14 pm I see what appears to be die cracks on the N and T of CENTS. What is that peel near the rim? With the zinc rot, this cent has seen better days. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34448 Posts	Posted 11/14/2021 8:17 pm @too, can you please try to pick at that linear feature with the tip of a wooden toothpick? If nothing happens then those are probably die cracks. I can't tell from the pics if that is what they are or else thin strands of dried glue.
