Seems to be just this year. I compared to a couple MS examples from Heritage archives and they also had weak striking around and above the ear,...
Wow nice example Doug, that one is a relatively strong strike for this type. Surprised it was only a 55. Possibly be due to slight wear on where...

Lima coin looks to be Au or possibly MS, gets a little tricky with the weakly struck areas, but does not appear to have wear. German coin looks a...
It's an adornment modeled after a coin, but not actually any kind of coin in itself.
Very nice piece. I always wonder if a good portion of such errors are made and/or taken out by mint employees.
I'm sure they would be interesting to error collectors, but none of these would be worth more than a few dollars each. They are relatively common...

It's definitely a modern replica, silver wash over base metal. I have come across several of them in various sizes.
This seller has location listed in US, but look at feedback, it's fake feedback from Chinese members with 0 score. These specific coins are listed...
Could possibly have been used to create a mold for casting copies, though the mold would have pretty weak details.
Someone buying it as an error coin would likely pay a premium, but people that specialize in this type of coin would not.

Overstrikes are very common for this type, even for other mint marks. From what I've seen it does not significantly affect the value. This is the...
I'm having trouble figuring out if the coin actually has significant wear, or was just made that way... I kind of see evidence for both. Well I'm...
Examining it closely I can say for sure the adams apple is not an error, but a design element. The portrait has extremes in high and low...
