Die Break/crack?

mb357

would this be considered a Die break or crack if either?

It looks like a planchet issue, something like delamination.

I agree with the above... a die crack would be raised.... Cheers, RickO

Looks like a die crack from where I sit.

Mornin' all -

Looks like a common die crack across the bust.

I'm in the die crack camp. Looks to have 2 thicker raised areas in the "crack"

Both.
A die crack and a couple small die breaks.

With a "die crack", no metal is missing from the die.
With a "die break", at least some bits of metal have left the die.

That type of die crack/break is relatively common on Lincoln Cents and many other coins. It is a minor curiosity, but has no significant value.

PS:
Good quality photo.
