    So @paddyman98 helped you out with your answers. Take one photo at a time and tell us what you think is wrong with the coin. This is how you learn what is and is not an error. These guys have helped me out big time on here and that is how. We'll find out what you think you are seeing and help you learn how it is not or is and then learn from there.

    I would love to do that And learn more! I just didn’t want to bother anyone! The first and second pictures are of the same coin. The U looks like it’s doubled on the obverse and on the reverse I wasn’t sure what that was above the letters. Number three the letters look fat in the word America, and in number for the nine looks like there is a split down the middle of it.

    You won’t bother anyone. This site is here to help and as long as you want to learn then there is nothing you should worry about!
    So doubling, for me was the hardest to learn and I still struggle with it to be honest. A good site to check out is http://www.errorvariety.com/OFD/MD.html

    Your third photo looks normal to me. I don’t think they look any different than normal. Reading up on the minting process really helps as well.

    Thanks for your help! I have found many cud errors, but beyond that I guess I don’t really know what I’m looking at yet! Thanks for the sites to check out!
