    Got a few things going on here. Need a little help please. 1st pic is the coin a complete die crack? 2nd pic appears to be some doubling on the "R" and above the "T" looks like a "Y". 3rd pic looks like a die clash I believe. It appears to have tho letters "O" "N" and possibly "america" below. I appreciate any info.

    Those two are lamination errors. A lamination error occurs when the surface of the coin looks like it is peeling off.

    Looks like a cracked planchet to me because the crack is into the coin. A die crack would be raised on the coin.

    OK I can understand the "crack" as lamanation but what about the other 2 pics?

    The second picture (can't tell for sure) looks as though a piece of metal was struck to the coin in the minting process, the third pic. shows an area of lamination that has delaminated. I'm guessing this is the same coin.

    Lamanation is all - I pretty big one but not that uncommon on many wheat cents.
