Dearborn Moderator United States 95894 Posts	Posted 10/14/2022 11:59 pm not die cracks, looks like split plating to me - but I have not seen it happen on the flat fields before..

DMN Valued Member United States 275 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 12:24 am @Dearborn that was what I was thinking too at first. But I thought maybe pressure was the cause of the cracks especially at the upper part of the coin and the cracks do look different like you said more like a crack that came from splitting but I thought splitting from some type of pressure. And like you ive never seen this happen on fields. Edited by DMN 10/15/2022 12:32 am Report this Post to the Staff

DMN Valued Member United States 275 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 1:18 pm @Coop I just did the toothpick test and no parts are sinking or collapsing and the raised areas are hard and the toothpick is just sliding right over the top.I don't know. Report this Post to the Staff
gorham_collector Valued Member United States 426 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 3:16 pm Imo just a defective copper plating. And those can always look so different from coin to coin. Anyhow nothing that adds value here. not really spectacular Report this Post to the Staff
