    Never seen a die crack that straight before. If the line is raised, then it was something done to the die, if the line is incuse it is post mint damage.

    bububu if you want error coins go to a dealer between $1 and $5 you will get every kind of error you can dream of but these errors are so common they will only be worth that much even int he long run

    beats me. Bottom left, where the line penetrates the denticle, the denticle is actually split with different lengths. An almost ruler-straight line going approx. 45 degree to top right. Line can be seen in fields and in devices (like the legs of the ?three headed lion?)

    Beats me. but a curious piece. What does a normal one look like?

    It's not a die crack, but I'm not sure what it is. It would require an examination under a microscope.
