The Model Production Function (MPF) for crater chronology can be also an useful tool to estimate crust layering and physical properties. We employed this model to derive the thickness of an uppermost fractured layer (H) for Rachmaninoff and Raditadli basins (Mercury), obtaining a value up to 3 km and 0.4-0.7 km respectively. In order to understand if the different H values obtained for the two basins are related to local rheological variable, inherited conditions or merely impact related fragmentation, Poincarè and Schrodinger lunar analogues have been taken into consideration.
