A little help from the Frankie Experts, Please....



I have about ZIP knowledge when it comes to Franklin Halves and varieties. Is this a die crack going thru the gong? It 's definitly raised. The half is a 1959-D

I thought it looked familiar but I don't have any others that display the "crack" going thru the clapper. image

    It sure looks like a die crack -

    not a variety but rather a mid-late state die that was on its last few thousand strikes
