[QUOTE="Paul M., post: 2366081, member: 73165"]Feel free to disagree with me, especially when I'm wrong. :P Yes, the difference is that a die crack is an issue on the die and it will show up on every coin struck with that die after it appears. Plating bubbles are when a small amount of gas gets trapped in between the zinc core and copper plating. They're both raised, but plating issues will only show up on a single coin, and aren't really that interesting. [url]http://www.error-ref.com/blisteredplating/[/url] has some pictures, and, now, I'm a little more convinced it might be a plating issue. I have a lot to learn about errors. :)[/QUOTE]
