Message:: [QUOTE="TexAg, post: 4587353, member: 86167"]My uncle has a roll of Unc 1955 Roosevelt dimes he bought from a dealer in the early 1960’s, knowing that was a low mintage year (12.45 million). He transferred them to a plastic tube and they have remained BU. About 1/2 of the roll has two different obverse die cracks. A slight one at the top of Roosevelt’s head, the other is more pronounced at the back of his head. The rest of the roll has no die cracks. An example of all 3 are shown below. We cannot find these 2 die cracks mentioned except in an old CT thread which did not shed much light. Otherwise no mention of them that we could find. We have several questions for you dime collectors. Do the die cracks add value? Do any of these qualify as Full Torch or Full Bands? Would ANACS put “Die Crack” on the label. Would they put “Full Torch”, or “Full Bands” on the label if they qualify? Would you have any of them graded knowing that our Club batch submittal to ANACS would mean total cost per coin would be around $15. My inexpert guess is that all 3 would grade MS62-64.
