[QUOTE="Delmer, post: 302177, member: 8219"]Thanks for the time guys.. The die crack and the anomolies are both on the same coin yes. I am pretty sure that is a die crack.. it's a little jittery, I don't think a scratch would develop into that kind of a marking. Those are the best pictures I could muster, putting the camera into macro mode and shooting through the loop with no flash. I wish I did have a better photo.. anyone with serious photo equipment want to do me a favor? :) Is this Ken Potter material do you think? (or does anyone have a recommendation?) I'm not really interested in finding out its valuable.. but I'd like to know what possibly made those marks. Yes it is very interesting that the markings are spaced out exactly 1 column apart. like an echo of the same image. They look like half bells a little. Hey here's some memorial trivia.. If you stand inside the memorial building and line up(with your eyeball) either the 2 left center or the 2 right-center columns with each other.. you discover that a straight line does NOT intersect at symmetrical points on the Washington Monument.It is about 18 inches off center. Washington is crooked ;) (I get bored walking around there sometimes haha)[/QUOTE]
