Ken Potter did an article for the 1983 cent in Numismatic News some years ago suggesting everyone searching should weigh all cents after 1982 for...
I can't attribute them but your second coin is def. an RPM. The first is hard to tell. The direction of the D of the first one does not seem to...
I'd help but I do not order my mint & proof sets until they have all been released to save on shipping.
I would not bother for just the COA. Maybe someone here who is putting their coins into an album could supply you with one.
I am not seeing any spread on the lettering on yours that shows on Wexler's examples. Die scratches can appear often and from many different dies....
Sorry Evan, not seeing anything out of the ordinary here. If you are thinking fatty letters/numerals, which sometimes may indicate a doubled die,...
That did not take long. The book has been taken so this is closed.
To anyone who is really interested in Crane Company and it's history in making paper money, I am offering this hardcover book for free to the...

I would not toss them, how much space could they take up? Older notes like these were often hand signed with cheap paper being used so the ink...
Possibly but I'm not seeing the bottom split serif on yours as compared to the photos. Wear may be obscuring the die scratches also. Wait for the...
Might have been a test run on something similar to an elongated rolling machine for a token of some sort.
I like the idea of glitter along with a note that thanks them for the phony money order. Cheap way to get back with a 55 cent stamp. Done and...
Nice to see someone doing their homework before posting. I rarely do staging anymore or use my microscope.
Catchy but ouch! Now everyone who sees a bubble on a zinc cent will think they have a doubled die.;):D
Not a cud as that would involve the rim. I'm leaning towards some shifted metal from a hit because the bottom of the 9 does not look right as is....
