mongoz Valued Member United States 62 Posts	Posted 09/16/2015 11:27 am I was searching rolls and found this there is a possible die crack under the S P.S.: I had a dream last night I found like 20 Retained Cuds too bad it wasn't true Report this Post to the Staff

Pete41 Valued Member United States 261 Posts	Posted 09/16/2015 12:01 pm Hi Mongoz. There is something there but hard to tell what with the small image. Is it raised? Report this Post to the Staff
mongoz Valued Member United States 62 Posts	Posted 09/16/2015 12:05 pm Yes it is raised that is what made me think it was die crack and not PMD Report this Post to the Staff

cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 09/16/2015 2:43 pm As wide as that is, I'm guessing it is most likely a gas bubble or blistered plating like shown here: http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/m...laneous.html Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/18/2015 2:00 pm Looks like a die gouge. Note how it flows behind the EPU. Looks raised, so it may have been scratched into the field of the die. (fields are the outer part of the die. devices are sunk into the die) Thanks for the extra image. Report this Post to the Staff
