drhscl Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 11:56 am I have come across several possible die breaks on 1983 as well as 1982 cents. Seems like Philadelphia had some die issues during those two years. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'll attach this 1983 and attach some of the others I came across in separate posts. The breaks on this one are on the reverse side. One going through the "E" of United, and the other is to the right of the "CENT". Your help is always appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 12:12 pm Looks like on the obverse something was squashed on the Liberty/bust area. 2 die cracks on the reverse. Something strange on the 'AM' on America? But see it on the right roof area also. So it might be glare from a light source? Report this Post to the Staff
