That 1974 die crack is impressive! So are the 1961 and 1964 toned coins.

Thanks Errers and Varietys and SPP-Ottawa. Started going through the UNC rolls and found some good grade 1965 Blunt 5, large bead coins  Also found some 1964, 1965 B5SB and 1966 "frosted field" and "frosted" devices coins with different degrees of "frosting" (which I assume is acid wearing off from the die cleaning process?).

Super finds and the only one I can't find yet is the 1979 DDO. I did find this one the other day also and I call it the Black Knot variety. Where Black Knot comes from is a Black growth on Choke Cherry trees branches like this and is fatal to the tree. Make sure you up date the DD Variety post and check out my new findings.
