1960 penny roll

Every picture is a different penny. I have two main questions: are these small date Penny's? And are the areas I circled die deterioration? I have a roll of these and many of them have different issues

Both large and small dates are common on the Denver coins.
As are the chips and other anomalies.

Yes they are small date 1960 D. The obverses on coin 2 and 3 are die chips. I can't make out what's happening on the reverses, but I would think probably die deterioration. There are several doubled dies and rpms for 1960. It's a great year for LMC varieties!

 

The first one is interesting. I tend to see suggestions of a small date/large date in the date. The coin appears to be a business strike, but you can compare with this coin of mine. I do not think your camera can do well with the size, but use a magnifier to look at the areas I used color to indicate. It is 1960 sm/lg date with a RPM D/D that is widely separated. Image has to be rather sharp to show the separated 'D'. Best of luck! Jim

 

Wooo doggies. Granny will ya look at that

 

Yes, has a difficult time taking pictures, I will look at them with my X45 lens. Thanks for the replies!!! What I noticed in the words "States Of America" is the raised area moves up and down

 

another enny, the 6 is split, hard to capture, is it doubled?

 

Last one, what is causing this on the date? Numbers all "split"

 

Ok, I think the above die chip caused stress on the die and this is the result? Anyone?

 

Wow. Waiting to see what the experts say to that.

 

This roll is heavy with die chips, question: can a die chip get under the die and stress it, I have about 4 Penny's from this roll with the same area of damage (on the 6)
