Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 01/18/2021 4:59 pm Ok right good question. I think that the informal term "spike head" refers to the situation where a die crack emanates from anywhere on the head or bust. I had proposed a while back that the type with the crack coming from the bust should be "head spikes" instead of "spike heads", but sadly that new name hasn't caught on. Yet...

MOS0239 Pillar of the Community 1110 Posts	Posted 01/18/2021 5:13 pm Okay. Well, I think that can be confusing. When I see or hear spiked head, I'm thinking just from the head not the bust, shoulder or vest. Although you're right, C on C says this: U.S. Coins with "SPIKE HEAD" All "SPIKE HEADS" will have a die crack from the rim into any portion of the bust. It shall be limited to die cracks found on the obverse of the coin. The designation SKH will identify this type of die crack. Report this Post to the Staff
