A dear friend of mine gave me the Indian Head cent pictured below. She knew I collected One Cent coins, and thought I might like it.
Well I not only Like it, I love it. Turns out after I got home and louped it, the coin has a Reverse Die Crack.

Is there a site link where I can compare this coin to other possible Die Cracks. I searched but nothing comes up. I searched here, No luck anywhere.

I think this actually extends further north on the reverse? Note the crack to the left of cent near the rim area. It maybe just not spread that strong, but it on its way to becoming a rim to rim die crack. (but not there yet for this die)
