Lincoln Memorial Cent Die Cracks

It appears you have two die cracks. It is common to find these at the 4 points of the building, but these are not the only areas that can be affected by a die crack:




These are less common. But all die cracks are die events. While some may end a dies life, not all do. The dies can be continued until the mint feels it is time to retire the die. The even that most often ends a dies life is a Die Cud. But these dies will go on and strike many more coins, and possibly have more events happen to these dies.
The pressure to form the central devices that have the tallest profiles cause them to crack like a cracker.


CoopHome: Why central die cracks happen
