Coinsniffer Valued Member United States 76 Posts	Posted 04/13/2014 5:46 pm Trying to get a super close up but the cup on the end of the scope I can't get it close enough. Bout to cut it down some to get more zoom I guess. It's hard to judge looking straight down on it but best I can tell it has some ridge. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/13/2014 11:56 pm What do I always say with laminations? They usually are in a straight line. This is a die crack. Die cracks are uneven, flow over the tops of devices and in what ever direction it chooses. Report this Post to the Staff
