numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 11/13/2009 8:50 pm Is this a die crack, gouge or something else ? Freaky-it looks like a bullet path. Report this Post to the Staff

Looks more like an impurity that was transferred to the coin inadvertently and under the copper plate. Thus the plating blistered along the line. nlp Report this Post to the Staff

foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 11/14/2009 12:20 am I also agree. This is a line of "bubbles" or "blisters" under the plating and not a die crack. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff

If they flow through a device, that is what they are. Raise after the strike. Edited by coop 11/15/2009 08:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
