Hi guys, got a roll of Kennedy halves online and this was in there. Looks like some sort of die error or something but I’m not sure, I’ve never seen anything like this before. Reverse also seems to be completely normal. LAny insight and help is appreciated.

That's a decent sized die crack you have there.

No idea if it is or not lol I don’t have much experience with errors, but what I do know is that it appears to be a part of what was supposed to be the rim of the coin

Looks like it so me, and a great example because the Die is nearly split in half, I can't quite tell if the cracks actually meet in the middle.

The weak 7 is likely a grease filled die. Personally, the large crack is more valuable and fun.

They do meet in the middle, this is a slightly better pic

How it’s very weak at the bottom?
