It's not a Die Crack. It's etheir a Linear Plating Bubble or a scratch.

E-n-V you should look at the pic more carefully. I disagree this time. It is is a die crack or Die Break not a bubble or Scratches. It run from one rim to other rim. I pop it an it did not go away. Look closely it run on top of the letter T of "CENT" the go across the surface through the bay the go on top of letter T "UNITED" and go to the rim. Same thing with the I of " AMERICA" then go through to T of"UNITED' again   |

Bate, I already looked at the picture very carefully. It's doesn't look like a Die Crack at all. I respectfully disagree on it being a Die Crack. Also, it doesn't go from rim to rim. Your pictures aren't good enough to tell if that line in the "T" of "CENT" is a Die Crack. I can see a plating bubble, which is why I disagree on it being a Die Crack.

I touched it. I looked through it by the scope. I pop it it didn't go away. How could it be plating bubble. It go on top of letter and to the rim E n V. You look through the pics I look through the scope. You can disagree with me but it is not bubble plating.

I looked closely but can not tell. Pics aren't too clear. See some bubbling going on so it just might be a bubble problem.

There is a lightning strike on the left top of the memorial going through the T in United but the bottom is linear bubble plating

It looks like a die crack with a die chip just below the base. I think I can see a continuation of thr craft on the steps to the SE corner bay in the center. Later examples my show complete die crack across the whole die. The other die crack has two branches on it. One headed SE towards the other die crack.
