alonzoftw New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 01/26/2011 12:26 am Although the crack may be very minor I would still like to find out if it is indeed a crack. Out of 25 coins this one had a strike better than the rest so I took a good look at it. Goes from "A" on Dollar to "R" to the end of the field touching the rim. The line squiggles exactly under the "A" but it squiggles behind the "R" Also checked rim and obverse for bends but I couldn't find any. Let me know what ya think. Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 01/26/2011 1:10 pm Die cracks are a normal part of the minting process. Because of that, they are exceedingly common and not worth a premium. Die breaks( Cuds and interior breaks) are a different critter and would be considered errors, they signify the nearing of die failure. Report this Post to the Staff
