  1. Got this today. Not sure What error this is. It's in really good condition other than the error. Any input is appreciated. Error? Value?

    Just a little break. Nice but not something valuable, perhaps a few bucks to an ebayer or someone interested in the novelty factor.

    Die chip in the 6. A CUD will come from the rim. Not sure what you are trying to point out on the reverse.
     
  6. A line running diagonally. Looks like it might have been struck over a wire or something

    That's called damage.

    I don't see anything. In either the original picture or the one with all the lines you put on it.

    It's still damage.

    Depending on what you wish to photograph (whole coin, detailed closeups, both), you may be better off with your camera than a so-called USB microscope. The vast majority of them simply are not what they're cracked up to be.

    It appears to be a die chip on the obverse and damage on the reverse. IMO

    I third damage on the reverse. No need for a USB microscope.

    Most of what I see also looks like unfortunate hits/damage. And Books is correct on the USB scope. If you think you see something now, be prepared to see a whole lot of stuff that just is not any type of error. I kind of compare it to mega pixels on cameras. After a certain while the human brain can no longer process certain things. And would I really want to see a mole on someone's butt in a movie magnified to 4,000 M.P. per square inch. (4 K Tech) IMHO scopes only should be used for die staging errors or similar. And that would only be for an experienced error specialist.
