Seriously guys, have fun with this one of a kind.

ricko · February 13, 2020 5:18AM

I do see one die crack on the reverse..... Not sure about the others... some look like die polish marks, others like PMD....Cheers, RickO

Treashunt · February 13, 2020 5:34AM

some look like scratches

silverpop · February 13, 2020 7:35AM

agreed better pics would be helpful

acadien · February 13, 2020 8:59AM

I'll put in photos of what I think is a die crack. Let'"s do it one at a time OK.
Reverse corner of the memorial at 3 o'clock that goes toward 9 o'clock on the memorial step.

ms70 · February 13, 2020 9:17AM

From what I see in the big close-ups it looks like the coin itself is cracked.

Please Maserati27, don't add in any more picture. I was told once that it creates confusion among peoples who follow the post.

Thank you

It would be nice to remove your photos.

It’s just an example of an actual cracked die I found. I’m a beginner too

Truly, UNBELIEVABLE.

johnny9434 · February 13, 2020 9:55AM

I see the one on the back but not the rest of it. maybe its my eyes

ctf_error_coins · February 13, 2020 9:59AM

I do see a die crack error.

I also see quite a bit of post mint damage.

Interesting coin to learn on but the condition of this cent makes it worth only face value.

Continue to learn.

Peoples are talking commenting on a coin but I don't know which one they are referring to.
Therefore, can you please remove your photos of my post ASAP.
If you don't know how, please
Greatly appreciated.

acadien, masarati did remove them. Now you have to remove the links from your post. The pictures will stay until you edit them out of your replies.

jabba · February 13, 2020 12:30PM

Sorry try again

Jimnight · February 13, 2020 1:41PM

I think I see a die crack, but I can't tell which side of the coin it's on ... how much magnification are you using 60, 80, 100x?

acadien · February 13, 2020 3:05PM

I use 50 to 300X, if you are referring to the last photos it's the reverse, the last step of the memorial. One crack continues toward 8-9 o'clock and from there it split and another toward 11 o'clock.

acadien · February 13, 2020 3:20PM

acadien · February 13, 2020 3:48PM

I magnified the Observe and they are scratches. But die crack is evident on the Observe.

robec · February 13, 2020 4:05PM

That looks a lot like lamination.

hey Ricko, are old are you...

Insider2 · February 13, 2020 6:02PM

I just dialed him up...the machine is off line at the moment. The problem the club is working on is he was programed to comment on fresh silver or copper. When an image is posted of a darkly toned coin, even the pretty ones, it shuts down,

Insider2 · February 13, 2020 6:06PM

I was going to post the number to the MIT Computer Science building for you to dial up @Ricko for yourself but it would probably be against the forum rules.

Another question....

"What kind of toning is best?"

ricko · February 13, 2020 8:14PM

@acadien.....Very, very old. Cheers, RickO

emeraldATV · February 13, 2020 11:29PM
