    They're errors all right, but man that 1st one is dinged up.

    Pretty sure the 51 reverse was just ground down but the others are legit. I like the off center one.

    too bad the money is in the one's that show the date, but still I agree.

    True but still cool. I've only found 1 off center in almost $10k worth of cents searched. I would love to find one as off center as the OP's even if it didn't have a date :)

    I don't think the 1951 has been ground down, as it's the same thickness as a regular penny.

    Sorry but I agree that it was ground down. There is no rim left.

    1951 = 2.8 grams, so probably ground/filed down. Hard to imagine how steady that persons hand had to be.
