donnie59 Pillar of the Community United States 781 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 10:02 am I came across this yesterday while CRH. It appears to be a nice, clean die break on the left bottom corner of the memorial. A closer look shows a smaller crack running from the base to the rim. After checking Cuds on Coins I was unable to find anything similar. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 10:10 am Hmm that doesn't look like a die crack to me--maybe a strike through instead?

CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 10:10 am Looks more like a small "Struck Through" error.

donnie59 Pillar of the Community United States 781 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 10:21 am It could well be a strike through. It seems unusually clean for a die break, but that was the first thing that came to mind. Report this Post to the Staff

donnie59 Pillar of the Community United States 781 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 3:28 pm Here a closer image. It appears to be incused, but only slightly. To me it looks more like a break in this picture, but I honestly don't know. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19159 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 5:13 pm Is that fine (very, very subtle) linear feature running from the corner of the memorial to the rim a die crack? Check photos 3 and 4. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96214 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 7:07 pm Funny, That is what I was looking at first, I didn't see the huge 'dent' in the memorial. So, yes on the die crack from the rim to memorial, and a possible strike through on the memorial itself. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
