<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikediamond, post: 335639, member: 1859&quot;]Bi-level die cracks do not appear to signal an imminent demise of the die, in the same way that conventional die cracks don&#039;t imply an imminent breakdown.&nbsp; For example, the &quot;cracked skull&quot; Lincoln cents of the 1950s feature bi-level die cracks, and most of these dies struck numerous examples. Bi-level die cracks are of interest in that they document a degree of plastic deformation that is greater than most people think die steel is capable of.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
