I have a 1925 and a 1922 piece dollar with die cracks in the same spot. Is this possible?

    Welcome to the forum! :)

    Yes, it's possible. Because of the design, it creates weak spots on the die. Coins of the same design will crack in the same places. Each denomination has spots they like to commonly crack.

    A good example is the memorial cents. No matter what the year, they all seem
    to crack at the 4 corners of the memorial. It is just a weak spot in the die.
