1850 Pennies With a Die Crack to Crown Area

Compare the die crack detail in the Crown area of your coin with the photos below. Remember that cracks can enlarge with die usage, so carefully compare the shape and location of the crack relative to the rim denticles and where it strikes the letter. If you find a match, click on the catalog number link above the photo to go to the home page for that catalog number. There you can check for other markers to confirm your tentative identification.
