Looks like I may have run across another cracked die. Take a look and let me know what you think.

Thanks... this is the second one in a week. Just dumb luck I guess. The other spike head was a Lincoln Cent.

Same year of dime? If so, it might be from the same die?

Sorry Coop. The other was a Lincoln Penny. However, I did find a die crack on another dime but it was on the reverse.

This discussion reminds me of a "Peanuts cartoon" years ago.
2006-P-Roosevelt-Spike-Head-Cracked-Die.
So what does this have to do with this conversation? The dies trying to move the metal to a higher and lower location during the strike, cracks the dies. Thus the sight of mostly 3 die cracks on a Memorial reverse. I can't think if seeing 4 die cracks. But after the third die crack the stress on the 4th area is gone. Thus bending a cracker is showing the stress of the die. It is not mean to crack, but does when the die wear/die polishing/enough die events happen to create a die cracks on a die.
