I found (and promptly lost, but that is besides the point ) a coin which I thought may have multiple die cracks, there were fine lines going out to the edge of the coin. I am not sure if they were die cracks or not. Could someone (maybe Nancy, as you mentioned you had found some recently?) please post some photos of 5c coins with die cracks?
I used to have quite a lot of scans of my error coins, but can't find the 5c die cracks. I have to re-learn how to use my scanner as my PC has kicked the bucket twice this year, and each time my son recovers it, the scan driver no longer works. Ever since he installed Windows7, my scanner is almost useless.
I'll see if I can do some more scans but I'm not making any promises.
Most of the die cracks are on the rev, and run through the curve of the 5, sometimes through the SD and on to the rim. Oh heck, I've got to locate the coins before I can scan them.
Anyone got any spare memory brain cells I could have. The single one I have left is so overworked.
life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved
Thanks Nancy and Australian Coin for your posts. The lines I saw were not as sharp as in the photo linked to, so I am still not sure what they were. I will have to see if I can find the coin again and get a good picture of it (both of those things might be hard :) )
