Looks like post strike damage to me

 

Here is a tip:
If the "error" cuts into the coin (it goes into the surface rather than being raised), then it’s probably post strike damage.

If the coin has a raised blob of metal next to or near a groove or cut, that’s probably post strike damage too.

 

Hi sir how are you? Thank you so much for the response...

 

All just post mint damage.IMO.

 

Is this post damage too sir? Good morning..

 

Looks like PMD too.

 

It's damaged. Damage will be deeper than the coins surface. A die crack or break will be raised.

 

There are more articles about the coin-making process at the link I've provided (below). I think you should study them.

Good afternoon sir. This also is damage?

 

I quit Sir but thank you though. My job is stressful. But finding errors is more stressful too lol ☺️Have a good one

 

I just see circulation marks. What should I be looking for?

 

Collecting coins should be fun. The only thing I can imagine that would be stressful is if one is expecting to find errors among circulated coins to pay the bills. It ain't gonna happen! ~ Chris
