    Die crack on 1948 D Lincoln cent

    Is this line across Lincoln's head a die crack? Seems too thin.
    Also looks like a grease error with the overall linear pattern, is it?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hello axelmorack,
    I clicked on the photo and it does enlarge. I can see the die crack through the forhead and above the ear. It does look like a die crack in my oppinion but. The coin is not enlargeable for me, with adobe photoshop elements. When I try to enlarge, the coin becomes very blurred. Over pixelated. If your taking these photo's with a phone, Gary's ( MintError ) direction can help with this. Or another suggestion turn the camera to the fine position. If you take photo's at the normal position 640pix enlarging them will not work at the distance the original photograph was taken. Thanks for posting.
    Eric
