Hey guys so since I pulled the two errors last week I have been inspecting my coins much More diligently.

The first two pictures I think are a grease error but I'd like some confirmation from you guys. Looks like a smudge mark to the left and right above Monticello.

The third picture is something I've seen many times but never pulled. The rim looks almost raised up compared to a normal nickel. Is this anything?

The last two pictures is something else I've seen but never pulled. The bottom of the rim looks almost split into to separate rims. Anything?

Thanks

top is a greaser, note the flow lines. the 86 & 87 P mints tend to have a deeper rim and generally mirror field likely from a strong full strike. the D mints also tend to be superior strikes with a slight concave look
 
Your nickel with the "separate rims" is a slightly mis-aligned die. You will notice the reverse looks fine. This is an extremely common error, and carries no additional premium.
