I was looking over my V nickels and found this. This is the largest die crack I ever found.

Everything is all right!

    Nickel was hard on the dies, which is why cracks are more common. Good luck

    Nice. Possibly led to a "cud".

    Very cool. I think I've seen that one before. IIRC the crack over ME becomes a retained CUD

    Kinda looks like the die cracks on a lot of 1850D half eagles.

    Don't think that I have seen that one before.

    A nice and interesting coin for an album collection. 1892 nickels are not seen in that grade that often and the die crack adds interest.

    All glory is fleeting.
