    Are these error wheat pennies? Pictures 1 & 2 shows a 1952 s but it seems half of the 1 landed on the s. Pictures 3 & 4 show a second 1952 s penny with the 9 filled in.

    I am sure our resident expert @paddyman98 will be along anytime to fill in the blanks. I am not an error guy but I can tell you this..... Copper is a very soft metal and is very easily disfigured from odd hits and drops through its life. In all my years collecting coins, I have seen some very peculiar cents with anomalies caused by the copper being displaced from an errant hit. I would suspect that would be the case with your first cent.... Now the second one does appear to show a die chip in the "9". Some pretty cool stuff though I have no earthly idea what premium that may add to the old cent. Cool coins to build a collection from!
