Discovered by David Close, August 2001

Die cracks at tops of motto letters with thin break between B & U in PLURIBUS.

Triangular die breaks at top of 2nd S of STATES.

Unique die crack through F passing and continuing through the eagle's wing.

Note that the images below approximate the coin's die cracks and are drawn by hand. The thickness of the line does not necessarily represent the size of the crack on the real coin. Often these cracks are extremely fine and need significant magnification to be seen.
