Nothing found in the rolls I got from the mint yet but found this one in change! Crack goes all the way across the jacket and coin is fairly clean.

    Thanks for the nice replies. Do you think it would be worthy of being graded as an error?

    PCGS or NGC won't grade a die crack as a mint error unless it's on a proof coin. You could probably get ANACS to note the die crack if you really wanted it holdered but you'd probably be better off keeping it raw.

    Although "minor" as a die variety, it's still a nice crack for a 2010 Lincoln!

    Wrong! PCGS graded several of my 2009 FY DDR's as Mint error die cracks. It was the WDDR 13-B that looked like a lightning strike. It was labeled Mint Error - Die Crack. Will post a pic later if I can find it.
