Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 08/09/2021 9:05 pm @tip, that is awfully straight for a die crack. Are you sure it isn't a cut from a razor blade? It looks incuse.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/09/2021 9:31 pm Close up of a cut on a coin: On cut on coin, it will leave an incuse mark with sides that are move metal from the cut. On a die crack the area on the cut is raised, no trench. Report this Post to the Staff
