    I was going through some coins I have and I thought this would be a nice one to share.

    It is a nicely toned 1883 V Nickel No Cents with a nice rev die crack that goes around the entire coin. I think it is a extreme example but I am not sure as I don't collect V Nickels.

    The front has 4 die cracks also... If you got any cool one I would love to see them also...

    I believe I may have same type not as strong as yours but same year and type ..maybe a "before" crack then yours fully cracked?

    Perhaps... but posting photos would help determine this.

    As an aside, do note that this thread is a few years old now. Nothing wrong with bumping it though (imo). Welcome to the forum, sir.

    Nice Coin, I be willing to bet the flag on the 1 you can see double or triple, bet it's a repunched date also

    I assume you used a microscope for the pictures? Been trying with my magnifier and can't get a decent photo..

    I think these die cracks are common with liberty nickels, or at least that date
