    There's nothing stamped behind the date. They look like very small Die Chips. Nothing major.

    Don't feel bad. We're here to help. (I personally couldn't have helped you on this one, but I will defer to @paddyman98 here, since this sort of stuff is more his thing than mine.)

    Why don't you get a Red Book and actually try to learn how to collect coins? It's how most of us started. We'll all attest, too, I'd imagine, it's more rewarding than what it seems you're doing.

    I doubt Red Book would be of much help with information on a minor die chip.

    You're right, as always, or most-ways. Although I'm suggesting he give collecting coins a try, not minor "stamps." Or, a.k.a., you're right, again, "die chips." But that's just a suggestion. Maybe he didn't know it, and he'd want to know it, and learn. Some don't, but not all.

    To learn what true errors are, go to: error-ref.com

    It’s easy to find damaged coins and think they are errors when they aren’t. Keep searching, learning and posting. This is the best way to gain the experience you need, and you need to have patience to do the work required…imo…Spark

    I can see what you are referring to, but it is difficult to tell on heavily circulated coins. I believe the area may have taken a hit in it's lifetime. That would make it PMD, but good eye for catching it.

    And, no, you aren't wasting anyone's time, so keep on looking at coins and posting questions when in doubt. The learning curve can be long and take years, but the hobby is fun and to me, rewarding.

    Good luck in your searches.

    Welcome to CT. We are here to assist and guide you.

    Keep in mind, it is absolutely impossible for you to waste anyone's time with your questions. You didn't threaten them with bodily harm if they didn't respond. If they were too busy, or felt it was a waste to respond, they would just pass over your thread and not respond. Since it was their choice to reply to your question/s, it was not a waste of their time. So please continue to ask about all the steel cents or pennies you have questions about.

    The suggestion by @eddiespin for you to acquire a Red Book was a good one. If you would like to learn about the hobby, the nomenclature, and the things to look for on the specific coins you have interest in, the Red Book is a great resource. Not all of your questions would be answered in that one source, but a great many will.
