Picked this up at the farmers market today. I thought it was a pretty cool die crack. I bet this was one of the last dimes struck. It is hard to see in the pick but the one side is elevated

    I know that Fred W has these on his website for a few hundred dollars!

    Unfortunately Fred's site doesn't seem to work for me right now, but maybe he'll chime in

    Here's a coin I couldn't even sell for $21 dollars last week.. I have already been called out as a spammer telling a few about it here on the forum. Funny, certain coins bring more than others..image

    If It doesn't sell in the final auction, it will be time for a giveaway..image

    Correcto Mundo! I went there last week and just yesterday got my system back online. The malware I picked up wanted to upgrade my Office 2003 which was able to delete some needed files from my windows system.

    Yuck!

    BTW, they were made aware of it and were working on a solution as several folks got hit.

    I have been told by some guru's in this field that they used to bind the busted up dies
    after they started to really fall apart to get an extra 1 or 2 strikings out of them.
    This one may prove that.

    Edited to add - this one is probably from the 1700's

    i noticed i got a 2009 P dime in change tonight.
    when i louped the reverse i saw i nice pair of
    die cracks coming off the bottom nobby of the torch
    on either side. looks like cat whiskers i guess

    You ought to use this picture for another "Got Crack?" forum thread. There are several out there already but why not start another one.

    I'd kinda like to see everybodies crack anyway!
