Hello to all. Found an interesting copper (3.1 GMS) 1982 P which I searched for a DDO! While the script is very thick it did not match images for 1DO-002 on Copper Coins. The Reverse shows three Die Cracks to the rim on the lower corners of the Memorial and a small one, top left corner of the D in United past the E to the roof. The fields are interesting as well and the coin is bright. Have a look at the pics and let me know your thoughts. Regards.

It is a large date=LD. The die cracks are in common areas. When you look up a coin,do you check all three reference site? Not a DDO.

Typically Copper Coins.LCR,Varity Vista,occasionally Wexler. I meant Large Date and I found the coin interesting. I must have 200 1982s but this one looked nice.

Those are pretty cool die cracks @acag. They remind me of this pic I took a while back:

Now if you took a piece of clay and pressed it into the cracks on the sidewalk, you would get a raised area on the clay. The same thing shows on a die crack on the coin. On the clay it is will be raised, on the area where the cement is missing. (the void)

I've seen the image before, but the idea of using it as an illustration of how a die crack and this image to invert to show it from a coins perspective. Aluminum foil or clay will show how on a die crack, the opposite happens on a coin. On foil, there is a shiny side and a dull side. Taking a fresh square of foil and pressing it with the shiny side on top. It will show all raised areas on the shiny side. If something is incuse, then it will appear raised on the dull side of the foil. Just another way to tell the differences and you can look at it with magnification even under a scope. Raised on shiny side tells you it is raised. Raised on dull side, means it is incuse on the coin.
