The picture were not as great. I have improved my skills in the past few months. The coin is now my avatar.
I don't know if this is a die crack (bottom left corner extended all the way over the rim. note the letter H and it's on top of it.)
The first picture is not clear.
The second one, my avatar, shows a white line just to give you an idea of where it is.
The third picture is more clear.
I have never come across anything with an error; therefore, I have posted this foru to discuss my curiosity. The crack is oped up and not caved in as a scratch. I can't see anything else with my naked eye.

nice toning. You said the "crack is oped up". Do you mean standing above the face surface? if so, that should mean it was caused by a die crack.

Yes, it is standing up. At least when I slid my finger through it I felt a bump.
If I send a coin like this to ICCS after several decades will they note this kind of minor error?
Thanks for your comment!

I don't know about ICCS or other TPG. Someone else will have to say.

Do dies cracks like these give the coin some sort of a premium?

No, die cracks are exceedingly common. I would not even consider it an error until it develops into a full-blown die break such as a Cud.
