Please - photos of both sides of the whole coin

 

looks like the crack goes thru to the back of the coin

 

No mint errors are present on your coin.

 

Thank You I have never seen a penny like this that is actually cracked . Thinking maybe the planchet was defective . Still learning over here

 

Check with the error experts. @Fred Weinberg; @mikediamond; @paddyman98; et al.

 

Thank You Thomas

 

Looks like a common worn die strike. It will deform the struck blank planchet.

 

Thank You paddyman . so a die strike can cause a crack like the one seen in my first picture ?

 

It's really not a crack but a ridge that is formed do to a deteriorated die.

 

Thanks again paddyman you have been a lot of help
