Hello everyone, I have for your enjoyment A 1983 P which I found had three Die Cracks on the reverse. One on either side of the Memorial, at the lower corners with the right corner extending into the base up to Column 12's base. The last on comes from the left roof under the I of United to the rim,
I really wanted to find a DDO on the Obverse and was happy with Liberty's look, but the other markers I don't think make it. So I guess I'll skip that. Anyway let me know your thoughts and regards.

These die cracks are common on the Memorial reverse. Nice closeups!

@all, those are very nice die cracks—a common location for them because the sharp corners in the design means an area of high stress. This same phenomenon can be seen elsewhere in the world:
