    Hey everyone,

    As i´m new to this error seeking buisness I would like to ask you a couble of question. I´m waiting for my usb microscope so these two I will start with that I can scan. As i´m new I know all feedback would be appriciated.

    The first one is a 1919 that has these two things standing out of the coin. I have seen chips and drops but never seen anything like this.

    The second has some strange things about it. On the head there are multable things standing out like these that would drop in the letters but much bigger. And I was wondering about the letters. Trust stands out to me and I dont know if those are DD.

    And third is D over S. I use a magnifier and it does seem like it but i´m a noob :)

    The 1919 is a big scrape. The 55' is a crack by the skull (cracked skull) and the letters look like wear.

    Thank you, See I´m learning allready. The scrape thing I must admit I just didnt catch. I was looking so hard at the error I didnt see the big chunk missing beside it hehe. The letters on the 1955 seem to be stretched can that happen wear ?

    From what I see it looks like die deterioration. But I've been known to be wrong on some things.

    What you have on the 55 cent is not a cracked skull it' s not on his forehead the cracked skulls error runs more across the forehead area the image near the head looks like a nice die break. The one near his cheek looks raised, but not sure it could just be a scratch the ones near trust and liberty apear to be die chips as far as the doubling just die deterioration

    The pic I posted is a cracked skull see the differance

    I wasn't making fun of your spelling I thought you were serious. I really don't see the crack going across the forehead the arrow is covering it up with those pics, then it would be a cracked skull

    Whatever you say.
    So back to the question; Are you saying neither of the pics. I posted are skull cracks or cracked skulls?

    Well if you want to be technical the first one could be, i see the crack running through the forhead of the first coin you posted

    Now if you are trying to be funny with the second coin which is very obvious that you are, no that is not a cracked skull it's more like a fake clip

    Did i answer your question my good funny friend I really like you Rockdude honest.

    JAZZCOINS JOE all the way get it

    Well read what I said about the second coin you posted in post 8 it's a clip
    I said the first coin you posted in post 8 looks like the crack is running through the forehead and may be a carcked skull
