Seems like there are a lot of different things going on here. The face seems to show "split-line doubling", which occurs when the copper plating...
Yes they are clad. The core is pure copper while the clad layers are composed of an alloy of copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel. The coin...
This blemish is more accurately referred to as a die chip. A cud will carry off the rim, which in this specimen is still intact. Die chips are...
Looks like a lamination error.
It looks like a die chip.
I'm no expert on mintmark variations by any means. At this point I don't know if you're talking about a weak mintmark or a solid mintmark.

The coin is in such terrible shape that the default hypothesis must be that the raised area on the reverse is post-strike damage caused by metal...
The photo is too blurry to be sure what's going on.
The off-center cent is genuine, but heavily damaged from being crushed between several other cents. This could have happened in the mint or...
The reverse does seem to show flattening of the rim betweem UNUM and AMERICA and between UNITED and E PL. That, combined with the absence of any...
As others have said, it's most likely due to a nickel being pressed into the obverse face of your coin while it sat on a flat surface. Still, let...
Does its weight differ from a normal coin? Is the center portion attracted to a magnet? Is the core (kernal) of a normal 1 Euro attracted to a...
It's not a genuine error, that's for sure. The bubbles on the obverse are probably the result of intense heat.
Your argument would have some merit, except for the fact that the "leaves" are not very leaflike to my eyes, and the "high" leaf grows out of a...
That's a perpetual problem with the website, but I have no control over its management. That's Ken Potter's domain.
