1955 p Lincoln cent die-cracks


Recommended Posts

:ninja: u have several:O!!! lucky i nvr saw a die crack in front of me xD

 

Mabye lucky, maybe all the great stuff I learned from this forum and books, etc.,

and maybe I am a bit more likely to find things that 'seem out of place'... my old

rockhound abilities at work.

 

Yes, these coins were in one roll I recenlty purchased from someone on the 'four letter word site'.

What actually fascinates me about finding them is how they managed to stay together and wind up in order

in a roll of cents.

 

I do have a very large number of cents with anomalies, and I just keep finding them. Even with my new fancy camera I cannot get all of the anomalies photographed. It is evident that I will need a very serious dedicated macro lens to photograph them all.

 

I am glad you enjoy these. I will keep searching and searching and searching...

Hey, this is like treasure hunting from a front row seat here in my comfortable home.

This particular cent does have three or so die cracks.

This isn't what I understand to be a die break error, which is probably the one from the rim, etc.

Of course, don't take my word for it, as I am a rather newcomer to this hobby... er, obsession.
