this is huge, in my book anyways, goes from the "E" down the face and splits off towards the ear, continues down to his tie, but a massive collection of die at his throat area. what yall think of this.

I turned your picture for a better look. It kind of looks like your reverse might have something going on but it's a distance shot.

Nice cracks!

The first picture of the reverse almost looked like you had a Struck Through Grease issue; looked washed out but the rim was crisp. I don't see that in the second (better) picture of the reverse.

How are you taking your picture?

Thank you, I am excited (I know probably sounds dumb) about this find.

Not at all, if you're happy to have it then that's all that matters.

I agree. If you like the character brought by the crack, it's all that you need. I have a few specimens in 2x2 flips and I'm always on the lookout for new finds. Folks here search for cracks and internal die breaks that eventually become Cuds (to show progression).

A die crack is usually only on one die. It is a die issue.

Im learning all about error coins my self and something does pop up on both sides that makes me question it. I spotted shadowing on some letters. Would that be product to lighting in the image or is it some type of error?.

OBVERSE: -TR- in TRUST

REVERSE:

-U- & -D- in UNITED
-P- & -S- in PLURIBUS
-O- & -E - in ONE
-C- & -NT- in CENT

Are those errors or camera shadows?

those are there, not due to light. I just re checked it at different angles, although with my poor setup at the moment, (I'm trying some tricks I was just told about last night) I'm sure I won't be able to get a clear enough closeup to show anyone
