Radial Antipodal Die Cracks

Radial antipodal die cracks are simply paired radial die cracks that are located at opposite poles.  They fade out before they connect with each other, but otherwise resemble a split die. 

Since these cracks often disappear into a central zone of subsidence, it can be hard to tell whether you’ve got a pair of unconnected die cracks or a split die.
