    I like die cracks. I'd like to get a set of progression.

    Is there a site devoted to tracking die cracks?

    It is possible to find coins with a progression of die cracks, but it would be very unlikely to find them in individual Mint-wrapped or OBW rolls. You would be more likely to find them in Mint bags of larger quantities.

    For example, I was able to put together a progression of 1999-P GA SQ's from a Mint bag that had 7 separate cracks. Some of these cracks grew in length over the life of the die while other new cracks appeared only in later die states. In all, I found 30 coins (including duplicates) representing 6 stages in this progression.

    thanks for the info, I was just wondering. I mean if you have endless amounts of free time, then that could turn into a major under taking--
