Is this an error? Grease Die, Strike through or PMD?

The distortions seem raised, but the coin is pretty worn. The damage isnt directly opposite each other too. Maybe got caught in some kind of machinery beaten until weird?

Discussion GSE, PMD, or both

Post image
1 Upvotes

Came across this guy in the wild - obviously, cos there ain’t no buying or selling him - and a friend and I are in the middle of a debate. There does seem to be some chemical corrosion around the edges of the coin and they think it’s clear evidence of PMD. I think it resembles several verified examples of Grease Strike Errors to the 2006 D Nickel. I’m not denying the chemical corrosion is evident, but neither the rim nor the lettering on and reverse are in any way affected. It also weighs a perfect 5g. So…pure PMD in the form of chemical corrosion, or GSE with a touch of PM chemical pitting? Would live your thoughts.

I can imagine scenarios of both happening. Is there a way to tell?

Discussion Query - Distinguishing double die varieties on late-stage does

1 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I have learned a fudge ton about coins in the past few months and it’s become the most incredible hobby of mine. History in general!

My query is based on most of what I’ve seen in all of my potential double die coins that aren’t on the obviously doubled side.

On double die varieties, such as those listed on coppercoins/wexler’s, I often have so, so many coins that fit perfectly with the doubling (words/date/bust) pictured on the websites. However, I fail to find most, yet SOME of the die markers/scratches/etc that are shown to compare varieties.

With late-stage dies being a thing, is it possible for certain die markers to totally disappear over time and make it nearly impossible to distinguish the varieties? How WOULD you best distinguish them with minimal die markers?

Thanks guys.

Is this an error? Striking error or human stupidity? Was given to me by my grandfather with a few other error coins. Also any idea if it’s a pre 64 or post.

For context, this is a 2005P so obviously I know it's not the speared bison, but perhaps a "wounded" variety? I've looked at what others claim to be the rear wounded, but this one just looks a little different.

Advice Mint Cancelled Kennedy

Post image
45 Upvotes

I collected some Kennedy’s in the early 2000’s, and just looked through a box of random graded Kennedy’s, and this was inside. I do not remember buying it, but assume through eBay. Question is, is this something the employees did on purpose (meaning there could be a lot of them), or is it more rare? Why would the Mint save these, just for collectors?

I purchased my first cap and rays peso, and it arrived in the mail today. I didn't notice the lack of detail on the bottom right of the coin. I am just looking to see what everyone's thoughts were on this as I haven't seen a BU coin just missing detail before.

I found this dime in my change and noticed a slight spread on the letters, most notably on the N of ONE DIME with my loupe. Pardon the quality, my camera is terrible the more zoomed in it gets. I’m unsure if it’s MD or an an actual DDR

EDIT: accidentally put DDO instead of DDR in the title
