Correct. I would like to see another shot (or two) that would show the raised die cracks for my educational files. (Most of the times, these are coin scratches, but because the die crack is raised, and the Line is irregular, it will be a nice example for a few more images for my files. This one will have a nice premium for these.  Note that the die crack ends at the rim? (Not seen on the rim) Often the examples we see on a coin scratch, will show on the rim being affected. The rim on a die crack should not show this area affected. The gutter, should not form a cracked area there. CoopHome: Should a die crack affect the rim on a coin on a cracked die? no. The step down on the gutter should not show a die crack. (coin scratches will show that area affected, with in incuse line) Edited by coop

Yes, linear feature is raised. I'm going to add more pics tonight. Sounds like maybe I should go thru ANACS. I work 3rd shift at a truck stop. My boss doesn't mind me looking thru money at night. I didn't even need my loop to see this puppy.

I do have a question. I had to lower the resolution of this pic to be able to post it. My orgional picture couldn't be clearer, but, after reducing res on here, it no longer is clear. Any suggestions? I'm also more than happy to email pics with higher resolution.

I was taught that taking a screenshot and then down sizing it and then making it a jpeg file, will help.

to the CCF Not quite sure it's a die crack. Looks like a scratch. A scratch would be both raised and a trough. Even if it was a die crack, in my opinion it wouldn't be worth the money to slab.

For me it is a Die crack, which it is all the way. Signs are there.

Yes. I agree. I think it is worth sending off to get graded. Then I am trying to figure out the best place to sell it. Heritage Auctions? |

@Coop I tried to get a few good ones from different angles for you. I'm glad one worked out.

It showed what I needed. The horizontal rise of the die crack. I was hoping for a shot at an angle that would show the look like a wall on the coin where the die crack should be seen rising. It would contrast a coin scratch (being incuse)  I would add the two images together to show the differences. |
