Tonights change jar finds - die crack, crud, & strange mint mark

StrikeOutXXX

Went through the change jar for strange things and found these 3 tonight.

Pretty cool nose rocket on this 94p Jefferson - I like how it goes all the way through the rim.


Then there is this craziness on a 93p Jefferson (Is there a technical name for this?):


And lastly, something strange going on with this 90p Roosevelt mint mark, but can't put a finger on it - any ideas? (I am 99% sure it is NOT post-mint damage).

The 1990 may have a small die chip.

The 1993 may be struck through something (?)

I think the 1990 dime was not struck in Philadelphia (P mintmark) but in Baltimore (B mintmark).

I have a 1994-P with the same nose to rim die crack. Neat finds.

I found your old thread, but the pics were gone. It must be fairly common. Anybody know if it was it in the 1st cherrypicker guide or just too common to worry about?

The FS on the 93 P looks funny also.

Yep, DaveG may have it right with a strike through guess. Maybe a thin layer of material which would muddle up the FS and leave the extra deposits?

RichieURich - yea, when I was flying through them, I said to myself - an "R" mint-mark? at first.



My neat but worthless box is filling up quite rapidly - someday I'll find that one neat and valuable coin

Thanks for sharing some neat coins!

I love finding stuff like that!

TTT for the weekday crowd. Any other opinions?
