Most price guides only list a couple of the errors. Washington & Adams. The Adams also has doubled edge lettering. For the rest refer to...
Best to check ebay ended listing for a better idea of value. But def. check the Washington coins for missing edge lettering. These can go for...
All of the bubbling on both the fields and devices on the reverse lead me to believe some type of environmental event.
Calling @Paddy54 Where are you?
Hate to take away from the OP but I went to the local X-Mart once and was using Washington dollars to pay for goods. The clerk took a look at one...
Strange, but at 66 and having collected for 53 years, I am still yet to find a Buffalo nickel with a die crack. And I've searched thousands....

@Tracey L Aldrich On modern nickels you could look more to the inside of the main entrance, inside left, right and top and the window overhead for...
I can't speak for the OP but it looks like some reflection. Same with the obverse.
@Publius2 pretty much spoke for me also. Collecting Overton and VAM varieties can be very rewarding.
The "N" certainly appears to be damaged by whatever the anomaly is that appears to have been dragged across the coin.
The history is certainly here. Perhaps it could be mounted inside a glass piece and then hung on a chain. Not sure what the glass pieces are...
Really Potty? REALLY? "Someone your age" Resorting to stereotyping about ageing?
