Awesome coins posted! Does anyone have a colonial Washington, one that says something like "Washington&Independence"?
I'll go with the crowd on this one. MS67. :)
Maddieclashes.com has a list of atypical, typical, and other sorts of clashes listed. Of course it would need to be a very strong clash in order...
I personally wouldn't slab them. As paddy said, if you just want to make them look more "professional", don't pay $50+ by sending them to a TPG....
I'd go with a solid 66 as well. :)
Mechanical doubling. It is flat and shelf-like, and it cuts into the devices rather than adds to them. Keep up the hunt!
It certainly looks possible going off of the Cherrypicker's guide photo. Great find. Keep up the hunt! Added: CPG says $25 in AU 50. Can't quite...
Holy expletive deleted! That is a nice coin!

Definitely appears to be post-mint damage. The lack of the Blakesley effect along with the roughness of the edge all points to being altered...
The way it cuts into the design is an indication of mechanical doubling. Keep up the hunt!
I'm fairly certain it is 1MM-001 based on position alone. There is either a die chip or some damage on the mintmark as well. Keep up the hunt!
The 1969-D no initials cent is the only one that is listed in the CPG. And there is damage on the mintmark asnwell, so PMD. Keep up the hunt!
If you got them at a local coin shop, I'll bet you bought them on a whim. This isn't necessarily a good strategy. Here is what I have done in the...
