[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 2345249, member: 24633"][USER=77295]@cabbage[/USER] I'm not sure what happened on the obverse because the lighting and angle of the photo could be better. You should try to have at least two light sources - one at 10 o'clock and one at 2 o'clock at about a 45 degree angle to the coin - and you should take the photo from directly overhead. It looks like it is a die crack on the reverse. They are pretty common on Lincoln cents because the dies take quite a beating producing tens of thousands of coins. Yours is interesting, though, because it is running along the perimeter. Like radial die cracks, you don't see this a lot. Chris[/QUOTE]
