<p>[QUOTE="Mike Thornton, post: 6474437, member: 105289"]Hello CT.</p><p>I need some help here. I've done some research but am coming up empty. I checked NGC Variety Plus, PCGS Varieties and Variety Vista but they have nothing on this coin. I have this 1948 Quarter that appears to have a die crack across Washington's head. It starts just below the hairline and extends to the back of the head. It does not run into either field. It is raised above the surface of the coin is why I think it's a die crack. Also there seems to be some doubling in "IN GOD...TRUST" but I think it's likely just MD. It's a very nice coin for it's age so I'm considering sending it in. I feel it would grade above 65. I've provided close-up photos of the suspect area, plus the Obv/Rev. Opinions please. Thx in advance.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1258539[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1258540[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1258541[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1258542[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
