Ceylon62 Pillar of the Community United States 1285 Posts	Posted 07/22/2010 07:11 am Pics are not the best. This a 96 P with what appears to be a die crack or something else running through the highlighted area running into the rim. If you look closely after a while you can make it out. Chukster, down below has a better pic of what he discovered (diff year). https://goccf.com/t/68180 What is it? Also I found 3 more yesterday which are high AU/BU 98 P's with the same issue along with a lot of pitting and polishing lines around the "in god" area. All of these came from customer rolls. I tried to take pics of the 98 P but the shine / luster is just too bright. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

RollHunter Pillar of the Community United States 687 Posts	Posted 07/22/2010 07:53 am I've actually been meaning to ask about that die crack - I'm not 100% sure, but I think all the 96P's I've found have it. At least enough for it to seem that way. Report this Post to the Staff
mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2604 Posts	Posted 07/22/2010 09:21 am That is a die crack and probably about 50% of the 96Ps I have contain this die crack, so it's very common on 96P. Other dates, much less so, but I've seen it on other mid-to late 90s as well, and in that same spot. Report this Post to the Staff
