1996 P Half Die Cracks

I have two like this. Is it rare you think?

Hi,

It appears to be a partial collar strike and the obverse die has some die cracks.

The partial collar is more important than the die cracks. It is a nice error. having two of them is even better

Thanks for the information on the coins. I hadn't heard of the partial collar before. I kept both.

Could be a partial collar. Nice find. FYI; Partial Collar Error Coins Also called railroad rim, this error occurs when the coin blank partially falls in the retaining collar, giving the rim a step lip.

 

Great. I have two BU examples with nice die cracks.

 

"Partial collar" is better than "railroad rim" since it is the edge of the coin that is effected.
