Modern die cracks/damage?

[mint_mark]

I've just been examining some 2006 2p coins (from change) and found three with the same lines. At first I thought they were hairline scratches, but all three coins had the same features in the same places.

There is a fine line from the base of the truncation to the rim and another from the F in F.D. out to the rim too, along with some other marks in common.

I guess you expect these things in mass produced coins, but I've never found three the same before.

Thanks for the info mint.

Sometimes error is used to find any variations in coin to attached a die,for me there should be two things on coin to guide well other practice it especially on DOUBLE DIE well I dont know the process of GB in making coins well it will be fun to have a guide like that if it exist along with die varieties.
