To me that is so cool! I cant wait to have the experience to notice things like that!
 
That first one is a very heavy die clash. You can see Jefferson's bow above the right side of the Monticello and his chin above the left side. Then you can see the head under the Monticello. The obverse has traces of the Monticello behind Jefforson's head.
