Anyone else out there collect these? Although there are tons of little die cracks all over this series, major ones are a bit scarcer, but I find some of them quite fascinating. Some cracks go right through (into) the devices and fields. Here are a strong 1944.

This one is a retained broken obverse die. The coin is from 1940.

This 1940 is pretty faint, but is long going almost rim to rim. I'd love to see one of these in a later die state.   |
