I opened the sealed plastic envelope to photo it good and it was still a struggle with the lightning and glare on this coin. Unusual location for a spike but I guess since this is the first listed, they are all unusual. I'm assuming this would win a longest SKH award from rim to bust if there was such an award :)

Wow now that's a sight!

Great job on being the first one to submit one! Certainly an odd place for a die crack indeed!

Congrats CHI!

Super crack! A great location, as it draws the eye to the anomaly.

I do not remember to see a die crack like this before for this year.

I am curios to know from the dies specialists, from this coin which die was. (by the marks)

PS. Touch also the rim.

Thanks CCF, love the comments!

Since the Liberty Bell suffered man made damage I figured it wasn't worth mentioning

I think this quote would look great on a Coop infographic
