CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 10/22/2019 12:44 am please post pics of the full obverse and reverse, I am not seeing any die cracks at all, those are remnants of a die clash that wasn't fully polished out https://www.maddieclashes.com/adc-5c-1988-01/ Edit: added link Edited by CoinTheTerm 10/22/2019 12:45 am Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 10/22/2019 12:45 am Die cracks will result in raised lines on the coin. The photos are too close and blurry to tell what's happening.

Moosieweed88 Valued Member United States 135 Posts	Posted 10/22/2019 01:02 am Very hard to get a picture of the whole coin and keep it under 300kb while able to see the raised lines Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 10/22/2019 01:04 am CoinTheTerm nailed it. The coin shows a heavy die clash. Interesting. Here's an overlay of the Jefferson nickel. You can see where the lines on you coin match up. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!
