These are known common crack locations on Jeffersons - many issues have &quot;characteristic&quot; places of high stress in the die where they regularly crack - and it&#039;s interesting to see one started on the second bisection after the first is already complete. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Die cracks are considered die states and not necessarily &quot;collectible errors&quot; on their own; they are recorded as pickup details for whatever die pair is being described as the &quot;variety.&quot; Doesn&#039;t mean there aren&#039;t collectors out there who are drawn to them (raises hand), but more as an intellectual exercise than any value-added proposition.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s part of the complexity of numismatics. Special features and departures from the norm can be of any &quot;quality&quot; from near-irrelevant (MD) to huge importance (1955 Lincoln DDO).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
