That makes it even more of an amazing find! I was thinking from the same die also Coop. Mark, that is why was thinking the odds must be way up there. As soon as I saw it I had to pull up my nickel photos and pull my 2x2's out for a close comparison. It took me a while to find the old 2012 post. Many of you have been at this longer than I (therefore more experienced) and are much more knowledgeable than I. Thank you all! Edited by southsav

I'm wondering if both of these would count as a Split Die?

Those are sweet finds. I would love to have found just one of those. I edited this post because the original first part was me having a brain fart and not completely reading Doug's question.

Split Dies
Median (bisecting) split die
Definition: A split die develops when a rim-to-rim die crack extends deep into the die neck and die shank (shaft). The width of the split is proportional to its depth of penetration. Split dies usually divide the die face into two sub-equal parts. These may be termed "median", "bisecting", or "symmetrical" split dies. Errers and Varietys.

Bifurcating was the incorrect term for me to use. Both coins' breaks are 'bisecting' from rim to rim. |

Look to be the same die with the first coin being a slightly later stage. As to the questions about how many were made and how many got out that is impossible to say.
