CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 11/26/2022 8:54 pm I didn't realize just how common this nose die crack location is on the Jefferson nickels until researching CoC a little. I was hoping to see these cracks connect but I think it's still a nice example of both dies being run till the end. Lot's of abrasion marks but still a hint of a clash under the right side of the memorial. This might be good for a double SKH and a reverse RRDC listing when the time comes we'll see.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5770 Posts	Posted 11/26/2022 9:51 pm Another nice coin. Congrats and thanks. Sure looks like the obverse crack bisects the coin but is obscured by circulation wear on the high points. Neat that the reverse has a nice crack going on as well.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/27/2022 1:31 pm Sounds like the same issue on the Memorial reverses. As the die ages the polishing of the dies and die clashes can affect a die crack issue on the higher devices. Always reminds of of a Peanut Cartoon years ago (1956) The stress of the strike and the aging of the die along with die cracks makes this happen more often on some designs. Never though of this one before, but it will be added to the list going forward. Thanks for posting this. CoopHome: What causes die cracks on certain areas of the design, seen on later die state coins? The weakening and die events of the aging die states. also figure in die cracks, thus the die are still used, and more die cracks can appear. Report this Post to the Staff
