Value would depend on what the entire coin(s) looks like (obverse and reverse pictures, Please)...

Anybody know if these are worth more than 2.60? Especially being a roll with the same die crack in half the coins?

Putting aside the issues of intrinsic value to the silver and condition rarity, I think that @mw88 brings up an interesting question: is there a premium on a set of coins all with the identical die crack above the same number of coins, each with a different die crack?

Photos are too blurry for me to tell if it even is a die crack or something else. John1

About the question on the value of multiple matching verses dissimilar die cracks. Run of the mill die cracks grouped as matching pieces or dissimilar will probably not garner much more collector interest than a single piece would. There are just too many common die cracks out there. Die cracks that are unusual or listable can be a different story especially when a progression of the crack can be shown from coin to coin for the same die within the set.

Question: Does it flow over the devices? Then it would be a die crack.
Does it flow behind the devices? Then it is a die scratch or a small die gouge.
Sorry I can tell from the images provided.

The die crack progresses through the roll streching from the m to the c ANA a right through the center of the letters

I will have to pull the roll and inspect it more closely when I get back in town. I will put clear pictures of the coins that start the die crack and pictures of the coin that ends with

That looks like over to me, but you really need clearer pictures

If it doesn't flow over the top, then it is a die scratch. It doesn't look like it does. Flows behind the devices.
