Are these consider Die Trails? I've seen a few coins where the columns have a small beaded line running down them. Are they DDD, Die Trails? Report this Post to the Staff

HeadsIWin Valued Member United States 260 Posts	Posted 03/29/2011 02:16 am I believe you have a really nice die break at the bottom of the the building. What's in between the columns I think is a die clash. Someone will surely come along that knows for certain. Report this Post to the Staff
lucleus Valued Member United States 165 Posts	Posted 03/29/2011 02:32 am Thanks HeadslWin. The reason why I didn't think of a clash was because it runs onto the column a little. Hopeful someone will know and be able to fill it in. Report this Post to the Staff

For me this is a keeper just for the 5 die cracks I can see and if that is a die clash in bays 3 and 4 you got something good. Report this Post to the Staff

Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 03/29/2011 12:56 pm Make sure you weigh that coin. Usually I can tell the difference between zinc and copper cents, but that one I would throw on a scale. Report this Post to the Staff
lucleus Valued Member United States 165 Posts	Posted 03/29/2011 1:01 pm 2.5g, Scooby Due. I weigh all my 1983's. What else can I learn from weighing certain coins? And what coins should be weighed? Report this Post to the Staff
oldcoach Valued Member United States 402 Posts	Posted 03/29/2011 1:22 pm Not so much as important just for the cool factor on a nice looking coin. The grandkids love that kind of stuff along with the toners and greasers. Report this Post to the Staff
