I got 2 boxes of of 2022 Philadelphia Pennys from my bank almost a year ago. I just got around to going through them and have found a die crack on several that I have not been able to find online anywhere. I have searched through 39 rolls and have filled almost 8 tubes with this same die crack.
Has anyone seen this die crack before?

To CCF! That's a nice long Die Crack. Since you found 8 tubes of them, they're obviously from the same die pair.

@fch, first welcome to CCF. Second, with few exceptions, die cracks on modern cents are not documented in any way, so I don't think that it is too surprising that you haven't found a similar crack posted. Since you have so many, it might be interesting to see if you have a range of crack length starting with shorter and then getting longer in length. In that case, you could show the crack's progression, such as with a gif. Someone else here on CCF did a similar longitudinal study, but with a die chip.

to the CCF and This is an area on shield cents that is a weak spot on the dies. Every year has a lot of cracks in that area.

According with the Mint tests for Dies. This Die crack occure around 100.000 strikes and the Dies must be change before 120.000 strikes. So it is normal to see those cracks and also others. In that time the Dies was not polish enforced, After 2010 it is others point and the ball game changed.
