My error hoard

So I have a few error coins that I like to show. I know they are not that great, but heck it's nice to keep something with an error on it. Wish I could find something nicer but heck.
Starting off with the sie chips. Lol yes I like die chips. It's not all that much but I like finding things other people have found.
This one you can see the die chip in 1907, and you can see it in 2008. (9&0 in 1907, and the 8 in 2008.
Die chips located in date.

Homestead quarter leaky bucket
Next is die deterioration

Next is minor lamination error/die chips. Extra metal everywhere.
Next is a dime with a clipped planchet, showing blankelsy effect.

1960 d small date.
Next is a dime with mis aligned die strike with the false edge, and major die deterioration on the reverse.
Retained and un retained lamination error on the back of 1944 s wheat penny
Back of a 1959 d Nickel is a lamination error.
Lastly. The 2016 d that I found in new issue rolls with nothing but 2016 d. Not exactly sure what it is. Maybe improper mixing of metals? not exactly sure what is under one cent either.

 

That dime called a disc clip ...

 

Oh, darn lol. Well I'll find a clipped planchet one day haha

 

It's a clipped planchet, it's just called a disk clip, that's all ..

January -9, 2010 -- Heritage Auctions' World Coins division kicked off 2010 with a bang over the New Year's weekend at the Waldorf Astoria in Manhattan, setting an in-house record total with its $11 million Signature World Coin Auction, Jan. 3-4, with the most famous Canadian coin in existence, the best of three known George V 1936 Dot Cents, leading all coins with a final price realized of $402,500. All prices include a 15% Buyer's Premium.

 

Trick is finding a Canada cent with that kind of back haha. Never found one yet. But I'll be looking for the dot. I only find the 40s dates and older.

 

Go sniping on ebay ...

 

I wonder how many people look everyday for that coin on eBay haha. I think I would have a better chance with Craig's list. Just post "looking for 1936 Canada penny" then tell them to post a picture and only take one that has a dot. Lol. Only post it every once in a while so people don't catch on.

 

Go to estate sales, too ...

 

There are Lincoln cents from the 60's with chips the size of pencil dots between the digits in the dates.

 

Interesting info at the bottom of this article about dot cent sales prices.
