cointagous Pillar of the Community United States 1094 Posts	Posted 02/19/2025 10:19 am I see numerous die cracks on both sides. Nickel is a hard metal so the dies did not last long and die cracks are fairly common. I don't see any Cuds on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 192 Posts	Posted 02/19/2025 10:46 am Thank you for your valued input. Interesting to know die cracks are more common on these old Nickels. I have way to many of these 1883 No Cents, some with die cracks but no RPM's. Ugh I have to learn what to collect, they don't sell fast. Report this Post to the Staff
jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3703 Posts	Posted 02/19/2025 10:52 am This first year type is notorious for achieving many die cracks and pre Cuds. An example with a Cud would be interesting enough to purchase. Quote: I have way to many of these 1883 No Cents, some with die cracks but no RPM's. There are no RPMs on 1883 nickels because they don't come with mintmarks. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?
