I found these 2 in the last roll. I believe the OIV is my first spikehead on this coin. But the double spikehead is pretty cool! It almost runs the entire length on the reverse. I know you can't see it the pic, But runs the length of the horizontal arrow.

i recently picked through a sack of $110 in change and found seven coins with die cracks.

first, a 1992 LMC, die cracks off the upper right & lower left building corners.

next, a 2016 shield cent with a tiny die crack on the reverse, from the rim to the banner curl. does it look like a little bit of a die break right at the rim?

next, a 2017-P shield cent with a die crack at the bottom of the shield. odd how that kind-of-curved die crack stayed confined to within that section of the shield.

next, a 2006-P nickel, die crack & break on reverse. kind of a bigger break than I usually see on any coin, big piece of that doorway gone.

next, a 2015-P nickel, die crack from the rim into the lower left corner of the building. the crack splinters into 3 offshoots; one going straight, one going up the side of the building near the initials FS, and another very fine, thin crack splits off and goes down through the steps and then through the upper part of the A. I cropped a little more off that pic than I meant to.

next, a 2000-P dime, with a die crack on the reverse, at the bottom, from the rim into and out the top of the I, where it splits, one crack going over to the bottom of the torch and another going to the bottom of the oak branch.

lol, last one. a 1996-P quarter with several die cracks on the reverse, and- bonus!- a serious case of blue cosmic crud. soaked it in acetone for a while, but only a little was removed. I might soak it some more.

numerous cracks on reverse, the largest one running from the rim at the S, through the S, joins the wing below the D and travels the length of the wing, exits the wing at the bottom tip and runs to the rim, beside the Q. looks like could be a small break inside upper loop of Q, maybe a small crack from top of Q to leaf tip. another crack from bottom of branch down through the O, to the rim. an itty bitty crack connects the tops of the letters IB in PLURIBUS, and the top of the other wing has a crack that runs up into the M in AMERICA. plus there's a small crack or break down on the left wing tip, small gob of metal on the wingtip near the last A.

i was gonna just post the pix of the cracks & skip posting pix of the obv & rev of the whole coin, but i've seen enough posts where ppl don't & the numerous 'post the whole coin pix please' replies that follow, so whole coin pix it is, even though they're nothing spectacular. I like finding the die cracks, it's really an abundant error to find. great finds are few and far between for me typically, so die crack finds keep me searching.

This one has several die cracks as you can see. This is the only known shattered die for the Standing Liberty quarter series.
