Interesting Buffalo Die Crack

Posted this on another thread, but it might get buried there with all the pristine Buffalo's ... thought I'd show it here

Not pristine, but a pretty cool crack IMO

    That piece didn't hold on too much longer. Nice coin.

    Neat! To complement it, here's one with a crack through the buffalo's head image

    Thanks for all the comments guys ... have had that coin for almost 13 years ... thought about it last weekend with all the Buffalo posts and brought it home for a visit this last week. You guys are probably the only one's outside of my kids and I to have seen it in the last five or six years.

    nice rev cracks Jeremy ... and Crackout image

    Very cool die crack. I'd bet that somebody out there has the break that followed... worth looking for.

    Hoot,

    That's one reason I posted it ... hoping to find another state of this crack (either earlier or later) ...

    I like the way you think image

  • Way cool die cracks. Still I like my two feathers 1925s and my 1937 lamination errors just not as neat as those die cracks.
