coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 9:25 pm The mark is incuse, so it is a die scratch. (I know you are going to say it raised, but the coin was plowed deep and the edges of the affected area are raising like a wave. A die crack is raised and no wave. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74542 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 9:28 pm The pictures aren't clear enough to get good opinions, but I think it's a scratch (Post Mint Damage). Until we can get good and clear pictures, we can't say for sure. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 03/02/2018 9:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 9:33 pm Let me ask a question: "When was the last time we have seen a die crack in that direction? How about never. Die crack usually occur on the top of the head area or on the forehead on the Zincolns. Note the two ends where it runs over the rim. We see an incuse mark on both ends.
