    Here's some weird looking ones I found in bank rolls yesterday.

    I can't make out what the impression reads on the 1960 D on the reverse and the one with the " almost" B instead of an " I " in Liberty is a 1980 that has some doubling in the motto.

    I'm just curious is anyone has ever seen any like it.

    The first may be counter stamped, or struck through something, the second is a 'Bie' error, a die chip, the third I can't tell.

    The third is the BIE error coin.. ( pictures 4 and 5 are the same coin ),same 1980. But it looks like someone tried to manipulate it with a punch or something to me unless this is what a BIE error is supposed to look like. There is also the same doubling on the R in TRUST on the 1980 as the R in Liberty.

    Looks like a lamination to me. It's neat looking.

    As for the 1980, I do not think those are die chips. It looks more like post mint damage to me.

    The 1960 also looks strange to me. What does the other side of the coin look like? I would be very surprised if there were a lamination that would run that straight and uniform in width.

    Some more shots

    Here's some more of the 1960 D and the 1980.

    The 1980 has no doubling in the date like a typical 1980 Double Die , I own a perfect example of one of those but, this one does have doubling in the motto and of course that Double BIE thing, which I'm starting to wonder was post mint damage too.

    Last two pictures are the 1980.

    I found this 1943 interesting too

    I would accuse it of being on a foreign planchet but it's magnetic.
