What kind of error is this?

The coin is a 1958 Washington MS65 (NGC) On the reverse there is a line coming out of the head of the eagle. Also do you like the coins coloring?





Thanks!

Position placement just doesn't jibe with a die crack.

If the line is incuse, there is a scratch on the die. Otherwise, the coin has been scratched.

 

The line comes out of the coin, not in as in the line is raised so def not a scratch what is it?

 

I think its a die crack?!??

 

Might just be a reflection...but it looks like it possibly continues over the back of the head....

 

Its a die crack I believe I looked in my x60 appears to be a crack, here are some close ups

 

I agree. the coin was struck by a die with a minor die crack.

Thanks,
Bill
