coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/21/2007 4:42 pm Agreed with the die break. Cracks eventually develop in to chips and later into breaks. I wondered why this progression, but considered that the crack ran deeper into the die and left more of a gap to fill with unshaped area. Leaving a raised area where the die was not placing pressure on. I found one with many die cracks on the head and I thought I would see if anyone could top it? https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...E_CRACKS.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

bonham3 Valued Member United States 346 Posts	Posted 11/21/2007 7:35 pm Not complaining by any means, but still confused. Reading a few other threads from past posts about this same thing, coppercoins states: nothing but a crack. I just posted (straight scoop die etc..) and now am wondering how we go from a break back to a crack ? Report this Post to the Staff
