Found this CRH through a circulated bank roll from a bank box of U.S. Pennies. This is the longest Die Crack I've ever found. It shows a very nice "Spiked Head" Die Crack.

That die didn't last long after that strike! Nice example.

Thank you Bump111. It eventually became a rim to rim Die Crack. The die was already on its way out.

It's a '94 right? Where does it stop? Crazy you posted this I think I found the exact same one earlier. I got to see where put it-the one I found stops just below his ear

Yep, it's a 1994. I didn't realize my title said 1995 until now. I corrected it. The Die Crack stops right next to his ear. 1994's I heard were notorious for Die Cracks. That's funny that you found just like mine. When you find it, you can post it here on my thread if you like. Thank you Spence. It's a nice one.

Ok was real close but mine started in the W. I wasn't going to post it but now with closeups I see it pierced his ear then actually continued all way down back of his collar but gets real faint.

Wow! It is very similar to mine, just in a different location. I can see where the Die Crack starts to slowly fade away. Thank you for sharing that!

Thank you spruett001 and OldJoeClark. They were both very nice examples. Finding "Spiked Heads" is very fun as they're easy to find. :-)

Yeah, it does get faint to the point were I can barely see it and have to have the coin in different angles to see it. We both got great "Spiked Heads". They are also very similar.
