spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 06/11/2017 02:57 am Those two '97s look like they may be from the same die and the '98 is similar (prime die stress area?). Pretty cool.

josephm99 Pillar of the Community United States 791 Posts	Posted 06/13/2017 01:43 am Yeah those two 97s do look like the same die pair. You can see the exact same slight bend in the crack in the middle of the fields. Report this Post to the Staff
JDRMCB Pillar of the Community United States 616 Posts	Posted 06/13/2017 07:35 am Yeah, I have found that die crack to be quite common on the 1997-P. I have found numerous examples of it in all three stages and have sold them by the roll on the Bay. Nearly identical die cracks can also be found in early die states on the 1996-P & 1998-P, but are not as common as the 1997-P. Nonetheless, it is a very nice naked eye visible die variety that easily catches your eye on first glance. Report this Post to the Staff
