First coin was defaced. Probably by rubbing it in the concrete.
The second coin is probably a dryer coin, could have been in an acidic substance.

Your second coin looks like it went through a rock tumbler.

Both Cents are Post Mint Damage

No mint errors of any kind.

Welcome to CoinTalk

 

Awesome filling. Me in on it being post mint dmg..so thanks everyone for the info..

 

You will see the same types of coin damage on eBay, Etsy, etc., etc, and 99.999% will be done outside of the mint and are of no value unless silver or gold content. It
is very unfortunate that so many "collectors" are cheating (knowingly or not) others
out of hard cash. The people on this forum generally have years of study and decades of study and trading. By reading different threads, one can gain a huge amount of knowledge. Best wishes. Jim

 

Okay, so I noticed that when you feel observes ⁰the coin surface its as smooth as a baby's bottom and you cant feel the lines at all, its the same coin different lighting, and the edge shows 0 scraping/scratches anywhere on the edges, I just feel like if it was scrapping up against anything that abrasive to give the appeal the first set of pictures that you would feel something, a bump/rivet/depression something lolly. Okay that's my last input on it, like it was said yall have much much much more experience in this than i.

 

Unfortunately it's not any kind of mint error.

 

Your post was answered above, so I can only give a suggestion. It has to do with posting photos.

For the best results, you should post "in focus," FULL IMAGE photos (after you upload your photo, two buttons appear: Thumbnail and Full Image, click Full Image and your photo appears full size on your post and are easily enlarged by clicking on it). Photograph coins on neutral backgrounds like black, grey, or white. Crop out superfluous background so just the coin shows (you can use https://www.remove.bg for free), and post photos with correct orientation so members don't have to turn their computer in some awkward fashion to view it properly. While it isn’t always necessary, it is nice to show both the obverse and reverse, even if your question is just about one side. Members can often give more valuable information having both sides to evaluate. Add close ups of areas you have questions about and make your questions as definitive as possible so we know what you are asking for. And try to have the best lighting possible to show the most favorable photo of the coin. Hope this helps in the future. Good luck.

 

So would this be considered damage or strike error

 

Worn beat up cents. Guessing chip on the quarter

 

Worn beat up cents.

 

No mint errors here as both coins have been damaged after they left the mint.

 

Very fine sandpaper leaves most surfaces "as smooth as a baby's bottom"
