    I found this 1888 Cent today and noticed the crack on the reverse.
    I pointed arrows at what looks like a DD? and there is a line
    running through the C in CENT is this a clash? also is that a hit on
    the O in ONE or is that a mint error?

    the marks by the wreath look to be a clash of the points between the feathers of the headband an the line by the "C" looks to be the outline of indian profile, the "O" looks like PMD...

    The marks on the reverse are clash marks. No DD.

    Can't quite tell, but the reverse looks like there are either die polish lines or hairline scratches (seeing as how they go over the wreath). I'd say F-low VF.

    Reverse die clash, plus obverse (First S in STATES) & reverse (left side of wreath to edge) die cracks. Still, no added value.
