The reason I think so is that the crack seems rather thin and does not go to the rim. I know that a die crack can also be internal and not go to the rim, so it could be one of those.

Yes it is raised - but only very slightly. I don't see a way to get a side view photo, though. Edited by Pete2226 11/30/2014 10:33 am Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 11/30/2014 1:55 pm The coin is in great shape for having been circulated and there's nota lot of zinc rot...so I suppose it is a lamanation error. So, YEA! (for now) Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/01/2014 2:36 pm Probably a die crack. Zincolns don't have laminations, but do suffer having flakes/copper plating peel struck onto them. Sometimes it peels back, but underneath there should still be the copper plating under such a struck through plating. But your coin looks irregular like what you would see on a die crack.
