An Gold Plated (well used to be) Arras Token from Mexico. Not sure of the date though. There are several die cracks on both sides. The one on the right side of the reverse goes rim to rim.

I would say that the obverse die of this 1940 Canadian cent was just about near its end...

Another George VI Canadian small cent. Pretty large reverse die crack, right through the fields and devices.

I have had this coin for a while and never looked at it under a loop due ti its condition. When I finally looked at it today I discovered it had a couple of errors on the reverse. A die crack and what looks to be a retained lamination error.  The die crack first  This next one looks like it could be a retained lamination error.

1838 10C F-106 EDS Early Die Stage of this impressive die crack variety which (normally) starts in between Stars 6 and 7, traveling the left side of Liberty and downward through the shield and exiting in between the 1 and 8 numbers of the date. My example only shows the crack going through Liberty's midsection and thorough the shield.
