Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 05/29/2017 3:13 pm Not quite sure if it's what you're referring to, but I do see a nice die crack on the reverse going through the R in AMERICA. Edited by Adam_E 05/29/2017 3:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 05/29/2017 3:58 pm Minor misalignment on the obverse die, but cracks and chips (and the like) are signs of an aging die (die set). Signs of aging aren't errors though. If you do a little research here and around the internet, you can do voluminous reading on errors, varieties, and other anomalies attributed to aging dies. Happy reading! Good luck on the hunt! Report this Post to the Staff
