Pretty common and worth only a few dollars.
I concur. Struck through "grease".
I agree. A partially missing clad layer. From the weakness on the obverse, it's possible part of the core was missing too.
Examine the line under a high power lens and apply the tip of a toothpick to it. If the metal flexes, then it's a linear bubble in the plating....
It's a fake. The plating was removed and the coin was pounded between two pieces of hard leather, causing proportional expansion on both faces....
The roughness around the rim on the reverse is not post-strike damage. When the clad layer lifts off, it often leaves a rough surface. Since...
As Conder101 says, these are concentric lathe marks. A working hub was not polished (or was inadequately polished) after the cone-shaped face was...
It all appears to be post-strike damage. The apparent ridge might simply be metal pushed to the side as the point of a stylus (or similar) was...
Weak reeding can also be the sign of a weak strike. But reeding as weak as you describe should also be associated with weakness in the design....
Copper plating is very thin. The ridges do not flex when you press them with the point of a toothpick. They are solid. That means the copper...
All Canadian quarters have a reeded edge. If your coin's diameter is normal and if the design rim is normal, then the reeding might have been...
In truly severe cases, the letters are "swallowed up" by the ridge so that they're barely recognizable. The real puzzle for me is understanding...
Fairly common. There's not much of a demand for rim burrs. Worth only a few dollars, in my opinion.
This looks like a rim burr. It's pre-strike damage. Often it seems that the damage occurs just before the strike, presumably by the feeder...
I am certain this is a genuine curved clip. The design rim fades out toward the clip, there is metal flow in the letters that lie next to the...
It's a "strike-through" error of some kind. Judging from the soft outlines, I would guess that the material was relatively soft. Perhaps a glob...
I would say it's worth $5 - $8 in uncirculated condition.
It's still strike doubling. The flat shelving is unmistakable.
These appear to be die gouges. I doubt there's any relationship to the wheat lines. Interesting, nevertheless.
Worth two or three bucks, I'd reckon.
Separate names with a comma.
