    There seems to be some kind of lines behind Lincoln’s head. Also a die crack on reverse.

    That is a die clash on both sides. No die break:

    A die clash is when both dies strike each other without a planchet in-between.

    Abram is correct. Die clash. The line behind the neck is a pillar from the reverse and what you see in the bay on the reverse is part of Lincolns profile.

    Wow. Never would have guessed. Is it worth anything?

    Worth saving for posterity. Have you tried looking it up at maddieclashes.com?

    Advertised as an "error" (is it an error or variety?) could bring a couple of bucks on-line.

    Minor clash, in my view. NAV, No Additional Value.
