Sharing a 1866 3 cent with a shattered die maybe a RIDB and crack planchet that can be seen on the rim and both reverse and obverse .

That crack on the front is sick - could have been a really nice split planchet if it continued.

The first two anomalies look like a lamination flaw through the whole planchet. The rest look like die cracks, which probably imply a RIDB if they all meet up.
