Bingo I knew Ive seen this type of break before its definitely a late state not the one first believe to be. Nice catch

 

Thanks! I found this post and url very helpful.

 

Now that a real nice find!

 

I cannot help but be reminded how many times I ignored [these] conditions of coins that I have in my pocket change over the decades. I didn't pay much attention, thinking it was only street damage. It's been most enjoyable seeing these posts. I now see "cracks" everywhere, buildings, sidewalks, paint jobs, faces ...I mean everywhere! Trying to focus my newfound ADHD interest on coins in hand.

 

This is a split die straddled by what is almost a retained interior die break. Since the sharp border does not completely surround the elevation on the reverse, this is an area that experienced surface cracking and subsurface deformation.

 

Bisecting die cracks can have some nice added value.
