Here is one of my favorite Lincoln coins to search for, A 1983 P LMC with Die Cracks on the reverse! This sample has a nice Die Crack on the word United off the rim over the right side of I to the left roof of the Memorial. On the right side of the roof a light Die Crack from the roof over the bottom tip of the R of America to the rim. Continue to the right foundation of the Memorial a light Die Crack from the rim to under the right base. Down to One Cent there is a very light Die Crack from the upper middle C in cent left and down to the rim. Last there is a short very visible Die Crack from the right bottom of the letter N in One tp the rim. Take a look at the pics and let me know your thoughts and regards!

Have to say, pretty common areas for dies cracks on LMC's reverse especially of this era.

Yes those sharp corners on the Lincoln Memorial are stress risers, not unlike in this image:

A fun find though in any case!
