1991 D Quarter Die Crack

Ok thanks, I give up.

Keep in mind that an incuse mark on a coin has a 99% chance of being coin damage. Only 1% of the coins with incuse marks on them are mint errors. What has to happen to on a die to show a die crack on a coin? A die crack. Why is that important? The crack shows a crack on the die that leave a mark on the die that is incuse. So an incuse mark on the die, with show what? Dies are negatives and coins are positives. So an incuse mark on the die, will create a raised mark on the coin.
Note the die in the lack on the left:

Do you see the incuse line on the die. That is the negative, on a coin it will be a raised mark.




So when you look at these die cracks, are they raised or incuse? They are raised, because the die has an incuse mark on it. Now looking at your coin the line is incuse. So the die was not cracked, but the coin received a coin scratch that made an incuse mark on the coin. Hope this helps. When you have a question: "Feel free to ask."
