KevinC1087 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 03/06/2021 1:05 pm Hello Everyone, This is my first post on here. I have been collecting coins for a long time but never have really paid attention to what I have. Would just see something I liked or thought might be something and saved it. Also Have coins that my mom had saved for me when I was a kid. Anyway new to actually inspecting at coins but decided to start going through all of mine. I am trying to get better at knowing what I am looking at. I am going to make 3 post. Would just like to know anyone's thoughts on them. This one is a die crack I think. Thanks for looking and for your comments. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/08/2021 12:22 pm Die cracks are not errors. They are die events. As the die was aging, it cracked on that area. New ones go nutzo for these. But as you are around coins for a few years, then you realize it is a common event. Report this Post to the Staff
