    Question is: From the bank, all rolls are 2021, so they are classified as just "Uncirculated" right? Just dings and scrapes from their journey to the Fed to be rolled.

    You could technically say that.
    There are always exceptions.

    These are super clean but have hits on them. In the rolls, they are not all facing the same direction. And there are no other dates mixed in.

    If there is no evidence of wear, they are all at least MS60. To get above that, other factors come into play...

    I understand. Thanks! I've already found some errors. I was just taking a break from the mixed ones. Nice to look at new pennies for a change.

    To bad they aren't 2022P. Really nice Obverse Die Clash to look for. They are selling for $30 to $40

    Sounds like your having fun searching through them. Even though they haven’t been circulated they do get bruised from the handling processes.

    I saw that online. I was trying to get a box of 22's but all they had was mixed. I may have had one a few months ago. Didn't look at the bottom until I got home, all shiny, weighed 13lbs +, took them back to get mixed. Ug!

    I am. I've found quite a few with the same Die Crack above Lincoln's head through the W.

    Those are called spike heads.

    Here's what they look like. Three different coins. One has a scratch to the right.

    So, got through half the box. Found about 140 with the same die crack as above. One, I believe, is the start of the crack from the edge to the W. And two with a very fine version of the crack to Lincoln's head. The rest are thicker and through the hair. I stopped at half the box and will save it for another time. Wanted to get back into the coppers and opened a mixed box. While separating them, I spotted a few Wheaties. And one of them was a 1913. My earliest one yet from a bank box!

    Last year there was an article of the die break from behind his back to almost at the 3 o'clock position. Look for them they might be worth some money.
