<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1944425, member: 66&quot;]I think it is a die crack and here is why.&nbsp; It is a very fine line and it is continuous.&nbsp; If you lightly scratch the field of the die you are likely to have a fine relatively straight line.&nbsp; But when you lightly scratch across the irregular surface of the cavities of the dies design your scratch is going to skip and jump from one area of &quot;high relief&quot; in the die (low relief on the coin) to the next and jump over those areas of &quot;low relief&quot; in the die (High relief on the coin).&nbsp; A crack, being in the actual body&quot; of the die will tend to be continuous and affect both high and low areas equally.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
