Very interesting example. Wonder if 'rebar' was used in the construction of those columns?

That's extreme! Usually you see one, maybe two, towards the outside of the memorial, that have cracks. Nice RIDB on the head too! The E in "WE" has a nice ski look, that's common on DDO's but I don't see anything noteworthy, anywhere else. I have a pile of 82's that I thought might be DDO's, that I should release to the wild. Nice looking coin for a Zincoln, though.

Thanks for looking!
I'd did submit it so we'll see what happens.
Interesting that the breaks are confined to the interior designs of both die's.
Yes, This particular Memorial building was overdue for a remodel :)

Looks like the Memorial needs a trimming

wow! Very cool! I'll have to keep a closer out for my hoard of the '82s now. With that much cracking on both sides, these dies might have been down to their last few strikings and making this a rather rare piece.
