    The Obverse picture is too bright.
    I can't really tell what the issue could be.
    We want to help so maybe a better picture and a simple description of what you see.

    The light reflection hides it.

    Yes. Please do and give it two or more light sources so it doesn't reflect back in the camera. I have fairly good luck with light sources at the 10:00 and 2:00 position, but then my photos aren't all that great either.

    About any thing can happen to a coin while it is in use. The metal is soft and things bumps into the coins and can cause it to look like letters or numbers. It looks like you are using a lot of your time and effort to get so many photos of normal coins but if you enjoy doing it then nothing wrong with it. If you really want to find some good error coins then first you need to know what to look for. There are hundreds of good sites on the web to look at coins and learn. Don't depend on Ebay because some of the sellers on there don't even know what a real error is. Good luck

    I don’t have plan to sell my coins infact I have vintage coming from my country like 1902 /1904 I’m starting collecting and buying. I like to keep what’s valuable or not and also trying to learn error and stuff. Thank you and have a good day !

    It would really help you if you can learn how to tell a beat up and damaged coin from a error made at the mint. A good way to help learn is to google how coins are made at the mint. The damaged coins can easily be spotted almost at first glance when you learn more.
