Would these be error coins?

    I don't do the error coins myself but thought I'd post them out of curiosity

    Pics are a little blurry. What is it that you see that might make you think they are errors (besides the obvious "clipped" one?

    Can you get closer to the clipped edge and also show another pic of the whole coin?

    The top two in the third post is damage as is the pitted one below those. I can't make out any details on the remaining two.

    I don't see anything that makes me think they're errors, LOL I wouldn't know either way but it's why I asked are they?

    Nope, don't see anything that makes them errors. The clipped one looks faked. That's why we need close-ups of the edge and a pic of the whole coin.

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    The first one was probably stepped on and drug across the floor getting the copper plating off. The second one screams PMD because of the marks that look to be that of a pair of pliers, so I don't believe it is a genuine clip.

    The next two I cannot see.

    In the third post, the first one is the same as the first, the second one looks worn with some verdigris eating at it.
    The middle one in the bottom pic is waaay eaten away with verdi.

    I only see one possibility. The one on the left in the last set of pics looks like maybe a greased filled die. Clearer pics would be a plus.

    id say they are all pmd without better pics of the last pic coin on left hand side may be an error.

    Kasia Got my learning hat on

    1st two PMD (1. filed, 2. cut with a tool, possibly shears). 2nd two worn and natural for the most part (3. normal zincoln gas bubble pitting, 4. just worn I think, and possibly verdigris). 3rd two PMD and IDK (5. PMD, obviously filed down on edges. 6. ????? and scratched/damaged but not likely an error). Last 3 MD (Machine doubling) and wear. (7. Machine doubling, probable wear, possibly some grease filled die portions. 8. extreme pitting/possible acid damage. Can't tell what about the coin is there otherwise. 9. ??? looks worn, but picture too blurry).

    Five odd quarters

    I get rolls of quarters to get the ones I need. I have five State quarters obtained in circulation rolls at various times from different banks. All the rolls were mixed coins, not from the Mint. The five in question are as follows:
    Arizona, D
    New Hampshire, D
    Arkansas, P
    Georgia, P
    South Carolina, P.
    Each is normal in every respect except there seems to be no copper in them. Designs are normal. Thickness is normal. Full rims. Edges are reeded as normal. But the brown copper layer is not there, as if they were made from a nickle blank. But no distortion in size, or shape. The coins are NOT silver, nor are they magnetic like Canadian coins. I have never seen any dimes like this, no any other quarter. ANy ideas?
