 to the CCF! It looks more like PSD from circulation.

Thank you Yokozuna , I have found a few quarters with these types of cracks in them. Some micro and others large like this one.

 to CCF. No need to delete. Just ask question in the proper sections of the forum and add photos as well. John1

The incuse mark on the head (damage) is showing a wall rising above the head because of metal movement, If this were a die crack, the crack would be above the head, and no incuse valley in the center.  Not a mint error, but a damaged coin.

Thank you Coop. For the info on. Incuse So would "most all" incuse marks made be PSD DAMAGE? If obvious pushed metal. I would say yes. But are there such things as foreign material on the dies that would cause such a thing? Sorry I'm such a newbie. Lol
