I quite oftain get these coins with die cracks on the obverse lettering.
This is the first coin I have found with a crack on the reverse.
It is only small but it is the first one I have found so far.

Small die crack between O+R to cameo.!

Looks like the same crack as on my coin on the right hand bottom of the mace as well :good:
I'll have to check and see if I have the other crack as well:angel:

Yes it IS there very faint and it goes through the scroll work like yours as well.
Looks like we may have discovered a veriety Mate:yahoo:
