@LB51, first welcome to CCF. Second, if you are meaning that crescent-shaped incuse line that stretches from the rim by the letter T down to the back of Abe's neck, then this looks like a scratch to me. Just damage-not a variety or error.

Also, I'm not sure that the 1909 LWC is considered a semi-key in the series.

Not a variety or an error, just a deep scratch.
To be a die crack, it would have to be raised,
that looks incuse.

I just thought it odd to find an incluse so pronounced yet avoiding the 1:00 T altogether. And also no lamination or corrosion in the scratch like I usually see in a PMD especially from a coin this age. By the way this is the 09 VDB not the P is why I consider it a semi. Thanks for the insite. Sold this brownie today for $12 and loved it. My first wheat sale after my 5000 lot fiasco but still finding a plethora of machine errors....

If this statement refers to the 1c coin shown above (in the small picture), I suggest you contact the purchaser ASAP and give them their money back as a sign of your goodwill, as the damage shown on that coin is not an error, but has a typical groove/s cut into it which is most likely damage from a coin rolling machine. PMD/PSD all the way.

Also, before you go ahead and sell any other supposed 'error' coins I suggest you ask the members here whether or not it is an error. It could save you quite a lot of embarrassment.

Plenty people here are quite happy to assist in educating newbies.

I agree, if you called this a die crack, which it is not. It is simply a damaged coin.

Sorry for any confusion or posting in the wrong place. The damaged coin I showed selling for $12 was sold from my category of Other Errors /Machine Errors....in which my customers are fully informed to the best of my knowledge of what the are bidding on. I also list Varieties, DDO's, as well as VAM's and RPM's.....Thanks for the heads up!
