<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddiespin, post: 117070, member: 4920&quot;]I just want to know what happened here so I can label this coin right. I hadn’t asked this question until now because I don’t have a camera and I’m going to have to rely on your ability to fill in the blanks on these lousy scanned images and my description. The best I can describe it is it looks like a fault line opened up on the top of Roosevelt&#039;s head. It’s not a die crack as it’s not embossed and it’s not a scratch and you’ll just have to trust me and my 5X glass on that one (hey, how good is my credit around here? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />).&nbsp; I’d just like to know what happened as I suspect this is something in the minting process before the coin had cooled. It’s like it was struck and then this fault line somehow opened up. Any ideas, anyone seen this before? I suppose you’d have to be more familiar with the minting process than any of us would ever care to be (and of course please take that as the sincerest form of compliment) to have any kind of answer, here, but I’ll take guesses, too, anything, and if you need more description, please just ask. This one has been bugging me for quite some time. Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
