Die Crack? 1986

[twistedt]

Hello All,
have found several die cracks on pennies recently, but this one is a bit different for me.
As you can see it goes thru the N in ONE on the reverse. I have never seen this before.

Nice crack... Does the crack over the west vertical bar loop back around to the crack running NNW??? The appears to be some shifting on the crossbar and the west vertical which may indicate a RIDB??? I am not 100% sure tho... Maybe BJ would like to look at this one???

Sure does appear to have the potential of a RIDB in the second picture starting at the corner of the N and running NNW and coming back together north of the east side of the O.

Really interested to know more about it.

and to answer your question jfines69 - the crack over the bar does loop back to the other crack. At least thats how i see it.

I got to get me one of those. Thanks for sharing.

[twistedt]

Let me tell you - it makes it a lot easier when going thru a couple hundred or so coins at a sitting!!!!
What i like most is the nice pictures it takes and it is fairly cheap.

It is a small interior die break and maybe in a few thousand more strikes (if the die lasted that long) it would be a retained cud. At this point though, it is a bit to minor to list. Thank you for contacting me.
