<p>[QUOTE="lawdogct, post: 76805, member: 1476"]Die breaks typically occur over the life of a die and are unique to a specific die. I haven't heard of one being there at the beginning of a die's life, but I suppose its possible. As die's wear out, the are replaced and minting goes on. So some coins in a given year may have die cracks, others will not. That being said, I'd guess you've just noticed something PCGS failed to notice when selecting a specimen as an example.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
