Interesting coin. There appears to be DDD (die deterioration doubling) on the date based on your pictures. [ATTACH]
Do you have any links? Thanks Rick
They look like stains. If they are raised, they may be adhesive or dried gunk. JMHO
It’s not a 1969s DDO-001. Please post your pictures in the correct alignment, in focus, and cropped. The photo is sideways and out of focus. There...
Very nice! The right die crack looks like a lamination crack but obviously not, you found 11. I enjoy seeing your finds!
Nice find. Does anyone have an opinion on the anomaly in the field? Looks like a lamination crack but those are usually only found on solid alloy...
Great post. Makes you wonder if those abrasion lines were to remove a clash. The first picture almost looks like a column under the chin, of...

If the die is breaking, it can recess (vertical movement) hence shelflike crack and can move horizontally as seen in the separation in the wheat...
Separate names with a comma.
