I don't think either one of the off set errors carry a significant premium, as they're fairly minor errors. The last nickel just looks like post mint damage, probably acid corrosion.

Tell me about the half dollar. Is this a grease glob that caused this? I have 2 or 3 of these as well and wonder if I should just send them back into the wild?
Thanks.

All I see is a really well worn off center strike. You may be able to get a small premium, but that's about it. I could be wrong, but it really doesn't look that abnormal, besides the off center strike.

The clipped penny is fun,

The off center is nothing to brag about -but I found one.

The blurred nickel is either acid or someone took a plasma torch to it.

The half is a keeper because It's over 20% of the surface (-ish)

The mint went from horizontal to vertical presses like 20 years ago and that why all the greasers are on the obverse these days.

Nothing in the way of real value, but this is some of the crap we find.



I just REALLY hate the rolled coin that shared a kids pocket with his used Lolly pop.


Thanks for viewing!! HH
