texas_on_a_roll New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 10/12/2019 12:33 am I came across this while coin roll hunting. I am not exactly sure what this is, is it a die crack? I have come across some smaller ones, but I have never seen anything that big. Is it common to see large 'die cracks'? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
