Yup die break from the rim. That's a keeper for your error binder. Peace Roy

Die cracks on the OP coin. Looks like one on the left of the monument base, as well. That die looks like it had a lot of use.
The 2014 is also a die crack

You're correct. The 85Did has either a plating blister/bubble or the start of zinc corrosion underneath the plating.Thanks. I've been just thowing them aside over the years and looking to confirm my findings before I send to be slabbed.

Sure this is plating bubble but less is more in this case
