1952 Silver Dollar REV 001, OBV 002 Die Crack

If it is the same die, then yes 002. Just an earlier die state.

According to Charlton,
There were 82 Obverse and 58 Reverse dies used in 1952

Just looking at Charlton`s Numbering system;

``Group Three The Variety Number: Progressive varieties
such as Die Cracks, Clashes, etc., will receive only one
number and will be treated as a class. Constant varieties
will be numbered individually. So a Die Crack gets 002,
Die Clash 004. It is listed 002 Die Crack (P)
Progressive, the Double HP is 003 (C) Constant.``

Agree aswag that does seem like a short
lifespan for a die, but looking at my coin it seems, as
well, that they waited too long to make the switch.
There is a second crack on the denticles near TIA.

Thanks for the numbers on the dies JimmyD.

The die crack I have pictured is not the same position as
the one pictured in Charlton`s example so it is not a
earlier die state silverstackerkid but a
different die crack involving a different die - as you
had suggested, one of the 82 mentioned, in my opinion.
It is 1952 Dollar Rev.-001, Obv.-002 Die Crack.
