CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 01:11 am Hello Just learned about the websites for Cuds a couple of days ago.So I have pulled out a bunch of coins that I had put aside because I didn't know what the errors were. So now I have seen a couple Lamination error coins (which I thought were die cracks). And a few Die chips coins in my stacks. What could this be? from Cuds.on.coins I found Bisecting Rim to Rim Die Cracks on U. S. Coins RRDC-1c-1849-01 which looks similar to mine which is a 1955D but it also had similarities to UDC-1c-1955-01. Please let me know what you think. Thanks a bunch Report this Post to the Staff

Watch out for these, they could get you excited for a bit until you take a closer look. A die crack should be raised on the coin. Edited by BlueSolo 12/04/2015 02:29 am Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 08:41 am Thank you all, that was my initial thought until I saw the die cracks pictures the were classified unusual for u.s. Lincoln cents and they actually had one for 1955 that is almost identical to the pattern of my scratch. I appreciate your time. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 9:34 pm To be a Die Crack, it would have to be raised on the coin. When a die has a crack on it, the result is a raised crack on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
