I'm thinking XF particularly with the die crack:

Ionian-Isles-Lepton-1862-KM#-34

And one day I'd like to get an Ionian without a crack through the date.

It's tough to tell with the scan, but I'd be willing to go XF on this coin. Do you think it is a die crack or a foreign object on the die?

Good question. I've three other Ionians with what I've assumed to be die cracks and usually through the date.

I'll try a higher res scan, see if it proves anything.

Scanned at 1200:

Ionian-Isles-Lepton-1862-KM#-34

Could be foreign object as the fault seems to peter out in the denticles.
