Sorry I wasn't clear enough. We're dealing with post-strike damage here.
The letters are incuse and they don't correspond to the nearby letters. Therefore they are light contact marks from another cent. Actually,...
It's a genuine off-center strike that subsequently suffered horrendous post-strike damage. I have no means to specify the source of that damage.
The dime is missing a bit of the clad layer. And where you see no design at all on the reverse face, here part of the copper core was absent as...
If you're quite sure that it's not something that was added to the coin after it left the mint, then the most likely explanation would be a die...
It's a genuine double denomination error. There's no need to certify it as its authenticity is obvious to anyone with even a passing familiarity...
They're all genuine errors. However, I can't tell from here if the oval cent is an elliptical clip or an elliptical strike clip. As far as I...
I think you could get up to $300 if you list it on eBay.
A serif refers to the expanded corners of a letter. Some fonts have serifs and others do not (sans-serif). E PLURUBUS UNUM has serifs on the...
It's a dropped letter. It's even got a serif. Awesome combination.
I didn't read far enough into the description to encounter the dropped letter reference. While this could be a dropped letter, it looks oddly...

By the way, if anybody has the opposite sequence let me know. I still haven't found an in-collar double strike (or any sort of double strike for...
Congratulations. You've found a very rare error. This is an in-collar double-strike with a horizontal misalignment of the hammer (obverse) die...
The odd appearance of the obverse has more to do with inadequate upset and an excessively convex die. This appearance is the norm in 1985-D dimes...
I'd be happy to examine it for you at no charge. It would be very cool if this is another example of a sunken die error affecting the entire die...
This is not garden-variety die deterioration doubling. In the affected New Hampshire and New York quarters, it's only the peripheral letters that...
This is an unusual form of localized, premature die deterioration doubling. It is mainly seen on New Hampshire and New York quarters.
I'd say between $200 and $300 dollars. Maybe more if you can connect with someone who specializes in these issues.
I also haven't seen any bonded steel coins or ones made out of pure, elemental nickel. But I wouldn't be surprised if some turned up. Melting...
Separate names with a comma.
