Greetings all. Seems like there is an extra bit of material in the window of the school house. Also a possible die crack near the G in Grant though that might be PMD. Also some DDD maybe on the letters of the phrase "Foundation in Education" Thoughts?

Good eyes catching this one. That's the beginning of the progression for what I call the Christmas tree in the window.

So that means these were from the same die that kept getting worse and worse as they were using it?

Quote: So that means these were from the same die that kept getting worse and worse as they were using it The frequency of die cracks occurring in this area of the Dies for this coin is in part due to the design elements being so busy if you will in the areas of the window/ s. Causing a point of weakness and prone to cracking, as RW stated the common cracks there are now familiar and RW making it Famous with a nickname .

So if RW1010 called it a Christmas tree in the window, what would and early one like mine be called? The "The Tree Top"?
