1944 Canadian half dollar with die cracks.

My 1944 Canadian 1944 half dollar has die cracks down both sides & across the bottom. There is a die crack going through the rim and up through the last 4, I will share some pictures.

Try to find the 61st edition of Charlton that has the 50 cent varieties in the back .... Ebay and other places.
Or you can refer to the excellent work found here on the 50 cents:
