I was checking out a relative's handful of silver coins and came across this interesting die crack in the clouds on the reverse of a '64. On the left side you can see a tiny raised bump in between the clouds along the crack.

Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    Interesting die crack... Could easily be missed due to early state and where it is located. Cheers, RickO

    Good eye to spot that!

    Clouds? I thought those were marshmallows!

    The longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice is it possible for an empire to rise without His aid? Benjamin Franklin

    I assume they're supposed to be clouds...

    Like the ones above the eagle on early coinage:

    Yes - meant to represent 13 clouds

    I count 13. Looks like the right number.
    Do you think it’s a die chip?
