Looks like another D under the 9? Anomaly? Could that happen?

It is a die crack. I believe there are two different RPMs that year with a similar die crack as one of the markers.

It looks that way...it's not entirely convincing...makes sense if there are other issues that year in that area. Thx

The reverse looks like a lamination issue, rather than a die crack.

Looks like a die crack on the 9 and a lamination on the reverse.

The wheat cents from the 50's show a lot of die aging because of the use beyond normal retirement age. So nothing surprises me on cents from these years.

Must be a weak spot in the design when they over use the dies?
