Not sure what is up with the 9 in the first one, and I'm pretty convinced the second one has doubling in "GOD" and "WE" Thoughts are much appreciated!
Yes to Die Chip in the 9.. This was a common occurrence on Cents minted in the 1950's The rest of your Cent looks like wear and tear due to normal circulation. Nice Find!
The other cent is in extremely good condition though.... I really do think the second coin is a dbl die
No.. Not a Doubled Die Here is an example of a Die Chip on a 1957 from my collection.. I have 6 of them -
I see what you're talking about, but it's not the type you were hoping for unfortunately. Still, don't give up... one of these days you'll find one, and then another and another. So much of it really does depend on being able to identify the right kind of doubling when you see it, and is often something that will just click one day out of the blue.
@Kellyrae18 I want to share this website with you http://doubleddie.com/1801.html Read it all and Don't give up!
Don’t give up keep looking at as many as possible then you’ll find fun stuff. Remember there is all kinds of fun coins to collect besides error varieties. You have picture coins, machine doubling, strike through, rim cuds and rolled folds and other non variety errors to collect if that sort of thing excites you here are a couple example from my stuff. Stick um up Abe Planchet error Planchet error Machine doubling Struck through crud and grease mix As you can see I like no value fun stuff and you’ll find lots just keep on looking and have fun!

2nd Cent is a Lamination Error (De-lamination) 3rd Cent is a Improperly Mixed Alloy aka Woodie or could be glue residue
