    Your coin has suffered the rigors of circulation.

    You’re short four cents, and short a bunch of diecracks

    Die cracks are raised. Your coin has hits and contact Mark’s that are into the surface of the coin – there is no error on your cent, I’m sorry to say.

    thanks, i am new at this and just trying to learn what's what! the reason i thought what i did. cause the lines turn to cracks from back of his head to the edge of the coin you just can't see the in the pics.

    @rturner.... Your cent has Post Mint Damage (PMD) and no doubled die. Cheers, RickO

    What is the ridiculous obsession with die cracks on modern coins, did I not get the memo that these are now important??
