The &quot;crack&quot; simply looks like the other plating blisters (two largest being below UNI/edge of memorial and I in AMERICA) and bubbles on the reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Post 1982 cents have a zinc core and an 8mm thin copper plating.&nbsp; The two metals do not react well to each other in that setup.&nbsp; So you get plating blisters, bubbles, etc etc etc ... and that is before it gets hit with the environment/circulation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
