Yup, wierd die cracks, and nice ones too. Unfortunately these don't command much premium value...probably a few dollars worth.

It is amazing how much the die break on the 9 gives the image of a D mint mark. This has to be worth something on Ebay !!!!!!!!!!

I have been sitting with my head tilted 45 degrees to the right and that is definitely an imagined D. I could even convince myself that it is a real D. It seems to be the perfect size in relation to the S and it has the distinctive curve at the bottom of the D.

lol...I can usually always make something out of nothing! Speaking of odd things that sell on ebay...I just had a Mercury dime with some crazy wild strike doubling~ offered it as so, as maybe an educational piece for a whopping .10. Wouldn't ya know it sold for over $25?? Why in the world...? Who knows! I'm not going to complain...Not bad for my .52 investment~!
