Camrdaddy19 Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 07/10/2022 09:20 am I think it's in great shape. There's a good sized die crack on Lincoln's forehead that continues to almost to the back of his head. There is also a small Cud on the left-side wheat stalk toward the top. Curious if there's any premium. Also, I'm posting a few extra photos to try to give a better idea about the die crack. The coin guy in my area looked at it briefly through a cardboard coin holder and told me its about an MS60. What are your thoughts? Thanks for looking. Report this Post to the Staff

Mrhakfbacon Pillar of the Community United States 579 Posts	Posted 07/10/2022 09:57 am Could be, hard to tell. Fun fact: I recently found a 1957-D penny appearing to be high AU. I never thought much of it until I looked at the back and saw 2 small die chips, one on each wheat stalk Report this Post to the Staff

JTCC Pillar of the Community United States 797 Posts	Posted 07/10/2022 5:34 pm I see a AU coin which has some minor die chipping event, very common occurrence, no additional value unless significantly more prominent. Report this Post to the Staff

Camrdaddy19 Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 07/12/2022 03:12 am What about the die crack on his head? It goes from the middle of his forehead all the way to almost the back of the hair. Report this Post to the Staff
