Does it have any value?

    From the picture it looks more like a cracked die, which would be way more valuable than a strike-through. Need better pics from different angles.

    It looks kind of like a drill bit skipped across it, or more likely a wire stamped into it. (wire not there)

    If it's a strike-thru of that size I would think it would add some value. :)

    If a die crack should be more around. But I have my doubts it is a DC. Would like to see it out of the celo. But would diminish the set value.

    Really difficult to identify from that picture... Certainly something happened to that cent. Cheers, RickO

    Looking at pictures on the net, this is close to what it looks like, not quite this perfectly spiraled but similar.
    Close as I could find. Anyone want to take a stab at value, if any?

    The area circled is the tight spiraled area

    Interesting.
    Would appreciate a clearer picture, maybe a zoom in.
    Too much glare for me.
    Thanks

    Something else going on on the "O" in ONE.
