Your description is completely impenetrable.
If it weighs about 1.88 grams (as opposed to the normal 2.28 grams), then it is missing the obverse clad layer. In uncirculated condition it...
We'd need a photo, as your description corresponds to several different errors.
Correct. It's worth a dime.
Die deterioration (a.k.a. die wear). Just a late die state. It's only worth a nickel.
It's actually pretty common in those years where the letter is hugging the design rim and the design rim itself is very narrow. Even a slight...
In uncirculated condition it should be worth at least $300 - $350.
This is not a mint error. This cent was an insert in a "lucky token" or advertising token. The coin was placed in a ring and then stamped. In...
The picture is too poor to make out anything.
There's no such thing as a "lamination pull-off". You can have a lamination peel before the strike or after the strike. In this case it occurred...
Very common. Usually caused by a die chip or die wear.
Your diagnosis is correct.
It doesn't look like "sintered plating" or "copper wash". Possibly another form of mint discoloration. Then again, it could be discoloration...
Definitely a victim of chemical attack.
All I see is minor doubling, either machine doubling or die deterioration doubling. There's no evidence of multiple strikes.
Looks real to me. The word IN shows metal flow and there is a Blakesley effect (weakness of the rim) at the opposite pole. Both are signs of...
You're confusing this fake with die clash. Die clash will show incuse, mirror-image reverse design elements on the obverse and incuse,...
Errors such as you describe are well-known but they have a totally different appearance. The introduction of a second coin into the striking...
It's not a mint error. These are commonly referred to as "hammer jobs", "vise jobs", "squeeze jobs", and "sandwich jobs". Your coin was...
If it is a split-before-strike planchet error, then it should be weakly struck and one face should show clear striations.
Separate names with a comma.
