Re: Weak hits Errors Lead and copper and aluminum JFK's
coppoer one is basically missing 1/3 of it clad or should i say this oreo cookie is missing one side of the sandwich. the 2nd photo is a lead JFK no image on the back. the third photo is two off centered JFK's thoght I would show up better I'll try to redo that photo the 2nd post is all weak hit's I believe, and not nessassarily worn out.
This last photo of the 74 & 77 appear to be silver or another alloy but lighter than silver ...Aluminum
?
Thanks for looking

Re: Weak hits Errors Lead and copper and aluminum JFK's
By the way did you notice the BLACK dot? We get alot of those around here in Mi. I personally paid my kids 50cents ea. per box to put a RED dot in JFK's ear. That lasted about a week before the 3 of them quit on me. It was fun at first for them, but 20 thousand coins was a lot to ask I guess.
Anyway that was over a year ago and about 500 boxes and am glad to report I aint seen 1 yet to come back to me.... have YOU

In your first post -
Pic #1 - Hard to tell what caused the distortion here but it could be a "struck through" coin, in other words some foreign object (cloth, metal, etc.) got between the die and the coin blank.
Pic #2 - Post-mint damage. Looks like someone used it for a hockey puck!
Pic #3 - Both coins were struck on misaligned dies. If these were true off-centers the reverse side would show the same effect. Pretty common.
Second post -
- The coins with missing digits or letters are from grease-filled dies, again fairly common.
- As far as the supposed off-metal half, what does it weigh? It might be simply a counterfeit.
- I once found a half painted like a New York state quarter, 2001 I think.

This one only has 2 layers of clad Copper on bottom half. like 2/3 of an oreo cookie

This one is really Lead counterfit
off-metal half, what does it weigh?
Don't know will get back to you on the weight seems lighter though.
Here is the front of the copper back and the back of the lead half. pic's 1&2 in post #1
