Looks like a scratch even if it is a crack i would just spend it in that condition if it were me.

 

your probably right about the condition but it doesnt look like a scratch from my end .might be but looks like raised material from every angle.saying that ive been wrong a lot more than ive been right lol

 

It's a scratch.

Please keep in mind that the spitting eagles are only remnants of a die clash. For some reason, they were hyped as being rare and desirable, but in reality, they are just a nice minor variety. Outside of novice collectors falling for the hype, there is no significant market from error/variety specialists. Same goes with the IN -RUST WE TRUST quarters. They are just minor filled die errors.

Your coin isn't a clashed die or a die break. Just a scratch.

 

thanks for your input

 

Whenever in doubt about a spot being raised or incused, use a wooden tooth pick to gently run over the suspected area and you should be easily able to tell which it is.
From your photo, I believe I see displaced metal, which is an indicator of a scratch. As @Oldhoopster mentioned, there is no added value (NAV).

 

thanks for the advise m.man tooth pic sound great going to try right now

 

If you magnify it that should tell you also. Good luck.

 

Now if it was a pooping bison, that would be rare...

 

Not really just a bunch of die chips extremely common.All of those sate quarter erros aren't really major enough to get any extra out of them.

 

Keep looking and learning. Lots of fun ahaed.

 

That’s his cornrow. Thinking rubberbands
