SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 3:15 pm Can you explain to me why it isn't a die crack? I mean the bottom part has that feel to it. Report this Post to the Staff
Daves Errors Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 4:13 pm @Silver its Simple. it's insure not raised. One could say it's a Crack in the copper but its just a Plating Issue. Edited by Daves Errors 08/08/2020 4:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 5:08 pm Agree this is split-plating. Report this Post to the Staff
RobO411 Pillar of the Community United States 2404 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 6:03 pm Cool answers thank you all. That's why I asked Almost to think at first of a laminate problem but not on a 83. And yes below bust it does look like a crack. But it's not a die crack it's not above the coin it's in the copper. If that makes sense. It's in the book as Copper Plating Issue. Thanks again Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 6:54 pm Looks like it was struck through some copper foil that peeled off a bit. Not a die crack. Note the area where it peeled off on the rim at 2:00. You can see that the area that is left there still has the plating there. It just peeled on on that area that transferred from another coin/planchet before the strike. Peeled off sometime after the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
