When going through some of the coins my dad has collected, he had an original sealed box of rolled 2018 P pennies. I have found several penny with the same cracks in each of the 50 rolls with what I think (as defined on Cuds on Coins) is a die chip and crack on the Obverse and a die crack on the Reverse directly opposite of the crack on the Obverse. The path of the crack is different, but in the same area of the penny.
On some of the pennies, the crack on the Obverse travels farther south below the die chip (chip is noted on the 3rd image in the red circle)
I would like to know if this is something to send in to have attributed or other ideas on what to do with these pennies. I have looked at the various site that attribute and see nothing about this on the 2018 P, but similar on the Obverse of the 2020 P - IDB-1c-2020-01
I tried the best I can with images. The 3rd image I did an overlay to show the relation of the cracks on both sides. They appear to intersect over the front of Lincoln's hair, but do not follow the same path.
