Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73798 Posts	Posted 03/24/2026 9:46 pm Definitely a DDR. However, the Die Crack on the bust is different. The head looks like it's showing a possible Retained Interior Die Break. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff

They are too pixelated and also obscure detail we need to see. You do have a Nice DDR though - however due to the screen shots, the next time you post them your topic will get locked.

Valhallabound Valued Member United States 108 Posts	Posted 03/26/2026 5:50 pm The link I used for the die markers. First one on the list. https://www.doubleddie.com/675255.html I put the copper coins designation on the post. Sorry again. Report this Post to the Staff

I had the same immediate reaction. That flake-like structure doesn't flow like a lamination. The location and the way it squiggles along the die cavity suggests die cracks forming a retained interior die break. It's a nice coin. Would like to see EPU better. I have to agree that images uploaded from the scope would be way nicer than the glare on that screen. Report this Post to the Staff
