Algot New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 10/17/2015 01:27 am Is there a numerical designation for this specific error? I mean, other than a die chip. Thanks for all your help, Algot Edited by Algot 10/17/2015 01:29 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/22/2015 12:07 pm Markers are only important if the coin is from the same die. Cracks/breaks/die scratches mean nothing if the variety isn't there. The dies go through the same events so it maybe possible for a die to be affected the same way. Die cracks are something to compare side by side because a description die crack on "E" doesn't describe all the different ways the die crack can look like. So a side by side is necessary to be an exact confirmation, only if the hub doubling is present. Find the hub doubling first, then look for markers, not vice versa. Report this Post to the Staff
