Hi all, these are just a few coins I've found while searching and gotten back in pocket change recently. Pretty sure the first one is a 1989-P struck through grease filled die or a weak strike or something as the reverse is in decent circulated condition so i do not believe the obverse is "wear". The second i believe is a 1972-D Double Die Obverse but take a look at the pics. I'd like to hear what you think! The third coin pictured is a 1998-D Roosevelt that i believe had been struck through a foreign object. The bum is the same color as the dime and i see no creases or places where it may have been added through my loop. And last but not least is a 1983 Lincoln cent with a CUD that i got back in change. Enjoy!

That dime looks like one I had that was silver soldered to a pin that broke off.

You're right about the one struck through grease. Not very valuable, but I'd keep it as a novelty. The doubled die is hard to tell from these pictures, but looks promising. I agree that the dime had something soldered to it. If it was struck through a foreign object, the shape would be impressed into the coin, not raised. The cud is very nice.

Thanks for the input! For 50 cents I'll keep the half because i don't come across them like that much (ever) lol but i didn't think about that for the dime. I think there actually is metal added by someone to maybe make a pin like the post above you suggested.

Like the others said on the half and dime. The 72 appears to be machine doubling to me. Would need a closer pic to be sure. If so, then no added value.
