    The "crack" may be a side effect of finning of the rim. That's caused by excessive striking pressure. Or it could be the result of a very slight misalignment of the die, which allows metal to squeeze past the design rim. The doubling of the denticles could be due to die jitter, which causes "machine doubling".
