Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/04/2026 12:54 am Came across this roll hunting. A nice die crack from the rim to the bottom of the 2nd T in trust. The feature running to the SW I spent a bit of time trying to determine what it was. At first, I thought it was part of the crack but now I believe it is a residue on the coin - pics with lighting from each side helped me in this determination where a short acetone bath didn't help. The coin is currently soaking now to see if that helps. There is also a long hairline crack below the W in WE. If the die lasted long enough, there would be future spike heads.

Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/05/2026 01:30 am You guys have good eyes to see that!! I completely missed it. Closest listing on CoC I believe is SKH-1c-2021-25 but mine is a touch more to the left. I have come to believe that going southwest from the T is a hairline crack that runs along a clash remnant (banner) then turns south after the remnant. The pics below are from before my a day acetone soak. Lighting is from the left in the first pic and from the right in the 2nd pic. It drove me nuts that I could see it raised from one side but not the other. Report this Post to the Staff
