MontCollector Pillar of the Community United States 2403 Posts	Posted 09/19/2016 5:27 pm Found this looking through my change today. I know not the greatest condition. But before I tossed it back to pile I have a couple questions about it. Is this a Die Crack? If so Is it considered a "Spike Head"? If so it is my 1st one. Thanks...Mont Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 09/19/2016 6:05 pm Yep it is a die crack - but not considered a Spike Head - above the neck basically is a Spike Head as far as I know - This type of crack is pretty common on the quarters. Report this Post to the Staff

I was looking for the definition of a Spike Head...but couldn't find one, just pictures. Now I have a better understanding of them Edit: DOH!! just found this on CCF https://goccf.com/t/256552 Quote: Looks like a little crack from the bottom of the hair to the L Actually the crack extends beyond the L to rim in same direction...but is very light. Like it is just starting to crack there. Hard to show in pictures. I believe LDS coins that were pressed with this die will show this part much better.
