Shattered die?

[BC1969]

On a 2014 cent.



The pic with the lines, shows the cracks and the weird things that happened.
The one surface is peeled up and is sharp enough to slice your finger.

Not a lamination error. Those type errors aren't the same on plated cents. You have die cracks with an interior die break that's starting to move.

Yep and the Die was probably not long before it suffered total failure! It sure would be nice to find the mates to that Cent that show the progression of the Die Crack from the beginning to the internal Die Breaks.

Working on it!
I'm obsessed with looking at cents. Everywhere I go, I ask, have any rolls of cents?
