It appears to be a lamination error. Given the amount of wear present, the coin would have no collector value. However it certainly has...
It's hard to tell exactly what you have, but it certainly looks interesting. It could be a retained strike-thru or a lamination error. The...
Plating would not add more than a tenth of a gram. The plating on zinc cents adds only .02 to .08 grams to the weight of the unplated planchet.
If your weight is accurate, and if the coin is not a struck counterfeit, then it's probably a cent struck on a foreign planchet. I did check my...
Vandalized outside the Mint. A coin was pressed into the obverse face, possibly after or concurrent with the warping of the coin.
The detached leg is due to overzealous die abrasion ("die polishing").

I would think the results would be too crude to be useful except when there's a big weight difference.
A scale would be better, don't you think?
The only certain test is a chemical analysis which will cost at least $100.
No solid copper-nickel quarters have been authenticated in the state quarter series. The three or four that I've personally examined were plated...
Clips this large are hard to find on Presidential dollars. It is undoubtedly worth over $100, and perhaps as much as $300.
Damaged.
It was damaged in a coin-counting or coin wrapping machine. Your coin has a partial collar error. Because the obverse face had a diameter...
I agree with Jason. The "wear" is unnatural looking. The wear on the head is too flat and the junction between the worn perimeter and the design...
It looks like a damaged off-center cent. Worth perhaps a dollar.
I don't see any doubling.
It's a genuine strike-through error. Struck through a piece of debris.
Value is negligible.
The security edge is impressed prior to the strike, most likely during upsetting. The reeding is generated during the strike. The coin on the...
Separate names with a comma.
