I saw this BU 1920-D Mercury on ebay. While I did put in a bid I didn't pursue it because I couldn't tell if the line through the bust was a die crack, a scratch or what. Also, the center of the reverse is weakly struck and I wasn't sure if it was a striking issue or something else.

It appears to have lots of luster.

What do people think of it?

Thanks for your opinions.

Now I am viewing this on my phone with limited quality..... But it looks like a nice die crack to me. I'm a sucker for die cracks so I probably would have followed this one pretty closely through the bidding.
Rest in Peace

Maybe the weakness on the reverse was because of the die crack. ?

The link does not take me to a specific coin. Just search results for 20Ds
