I need expert advise on these halves

[MackinawGirl]

Coin Roll Hunting a box of Halves last week while I was bored and found these coins. Need some Advice (not advise...typo)

1-1972 which has doubling on the neck/chin, on the 7 and 2 and on rim. Someone also marked this coin for whatever reason they do that.
I used close up with camera magnifiers but this is as close as I could get it. I can see it clearly with my loupe. I imagine if I had one of those camera microscopes I could get even a better up close. Anyone know how to get that marker off.



1- 1983 which has what looks like extra on the rim on bottom right hand side


1- 1971 that has 265 DCM stamped onto it.



Are any of these worth saving or have any value is mostly my question?

Interesting. Sorry I can't help with values, but ,FYI, the stamping on the 1971 looks like 265, not 263. Maybe just a typo. I would keep it just for the novelty.

You are correct. I edited it. Thank you. I did a couple typos. I spelled advice wrong on the title too lol

Looks like nothing special to me. I would save the stamped one just for fun. I have a few stamped cents I saved.

The 72's pics are a bit blurry, but I can see doubling. It may just be strike doubling and not worth saving, or it may be hub doubling. I would recommend looking for notches of separation. Here is a good pic that shows the difference:



The 1983 is a MAD (misaligned die) but is within tolerance of the mint, so it is not worth keeping.

And the 71 is kinda cool and you should keep it if you want to.

Thank you for the information. I will look at it again and see if I can discern the difference.

Alcohol should take the marker off

The 72 is machine doubling, spend it. The second, as was said is a misaligned die. Spend it. The stamped one is the case of someone with too much time on their hands, spend it. Sorry I couldn't give you better news.
