I wonder if it's a regional thing, maybe certain coins circulated more in some areas than in others. I've actually found quite a number of two...
I really don't think half cents circulated that well. I've never found one, but my brother found one draped bust half cent.
63-s, what you are seeing as a stop after the A is just a rough spot from the corrosion. Look at the spacing between the plow and the N in NOVA...
They're all just normal cents, I've never heard of a 1983 AM error.
I joined a few of those groups as well. At least 90% of some of them are damaged coins, or normal coins at super high magnification showing every...
Not a problem. I've got a few Fugios but they're all pretty rough. Every time I see one posted I get the urge to buy a better one! Believe it...

It's amazing how affordable coins with so much history can be!

This one is a 48-g, which is an R-1 variety.
It's a 38-a, which is a bit of a better variety at R-5.
I'm pretty confident in 64-t.
I'm not 100% certain but I think it's 1787 64-t. If no one else comes forward, I'll look into it deeper after work.
These are interesting coins and very well designed and executed for a privately made issue. If you haven't read the whole story of William Wood...
The scale shows 3.09 not 3.9 two totally different weights. 3.09 is actually a little bit less than 3.1, 3.9 would be quite a bit overweight.
