DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 08/15/2008 10:59 am Seeking numismatic enlightment about these cents. What are the names for these 'effects'? Should I keep them? After all in the stash of ~1000 cents, I found something unusual only on these. Report this Post to the Staff

DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 08/16/2008 05:08 am Thanks for the rapid response! Even though the photos are more or less clear, these details are hardly visible when you look at the coin. But I think since I've sorted through them all, I'll keep them. Oh, actually in the 3rd pic there is a big bubble in the middle of N. Report this Post to the Staff

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 08/16/2008 3:34 pm Hi, the cent with the big cracks off the corners of the Memorial--is that a 1983? That year is somewhat famous for those. You have some great examples of an advanced reverse crack! Report this Post to the Staff
