I found this in a circulated bankroll from a bank box of U.S. Pennies. This bank box I'm searching is going pretty well. This coin has two Die Cracks. One going through his head and on long Die Crack on the bust. This was getting close from being a rim to rim Die Crack!

Thank you Wendell. Finding stuff like this always interests me. I collect these and keep every example I get as long as the Die Crack is going through his head.

How can you tell if a coin has any die markers

Not sure how to answer that one
exactly unfortunately . Usually, you would look for Die Cracks, Die Chips, Die Gouges, Die Scratches, Die Pitting, Die Clash marks, and die polishing marks. Coop would explain it way better than I could. :)

Wendell, die markers are determined by having more than one coin with the same marks of a specific die. Unless there is a reference listed, you can't just pick out an individual flaw on your coin. Markers are die stage scratches, chips in the same location, a broken mintmark punch, die dots/gouges all identical from coin to coin, those that came from that same die.

Those may be the beginning of bilateral, radial antipodal die cracks.
