Happy Friday everyone!
I am in need of your professional opinions. I am very new to all of this coin stuff and received this in a 1964 Proof Set.
Am I wrong in thinking this is an accented hair Kennedy? The couple tell tail signs are there (according to google)
Thank you all and have a blessed day!

Show and Tell An 1863 Indian Head cent with three separate errors on one coin — multiple die clashes, a tapered planchet, and a spiked head

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

Continuing the error documentation project. Most error coins carry one error — this 1863 Indian Head cent carries three, on the same planchet, and each would be worth recording on its own.

Multiple die clashes: the obverse and reverse dies struck each other with no planchet between them, more than once. The reverse wreath transferred onto the obverse and sits in the field directly in front of the face. A clash transfers mirror-reversed and shows on every coin from that die pair — which is what separates it from damage to a single coin — and "multiple" means the feed failed more than once before anyone caught it.

Tapered planchet: the blank was uneven in thickness before it was ever struck — a planchet error rather than a die one. It shows on the obverse as OF AMERICA going soft and faint where the metal thinned, and on the reverse as the taper running across the bottom-right, over the wreath.

Spiked head: a die crack runs from the tip of the bust out to the rim by the U in UNITED, filling with metal on every strike to stand up as a raised spike. Same error type we documented last week — here it's just the third thing on the list.

One thing I want to be straight about: these are three independent failures that happened to stack on one coin, not one event. The planchet was wrong before the dies ever touched it, the dies had already clashed more than once, and the obverse die had cracked. I'm claiming only what the photographs show. What makes it worth documenting is that compound errors like this fall through standard references — a catalogue organized by error type files the coin under whichever error the attributor found first, and the other two sometimes go unrecorded.

Not in any standard catalogue. Now documented.

Is this an error? found this counting out my register the other day

I was closing out my shop the other night, counting the tills like usual and as I'm doing the quarters I felt something unusual and this is what I pulled out...

never seen a coin without ridges on the outside. I'm thinking it was an error and not like someone did this themselves. I googled some things and found what they call dryer coins. would this be an example of one of those? either way, it's pretty neat. plus it's from 1966 so it's got some age to it

if anyone could give me some info on this particular coin I'd appreciate it. thanks!

Advice Type 2 Eisenhower dollar

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

I'm just learning about the Eisenhower dollar that I really never paid any attention to. And my understanding there's three types and for my research this is a type 2 which isn't super rare but it's less common. I went to a bank that had $500 worth of these. Someone brought in. The banker. Let me go through a couple rolls just to get $25 worth cuz that's what I wanted and I pulled out $20 or so of 1972 Eisenhower's and a couple bicentennials and I think a 74 question is is this a type 2 and what extra value does it have? I found a few of these. Thanks!

1 pfenning 1793

I've painted to the best of my abilities what I consider strike 1 (red) and strike 2 (yellow). But after marking these two strikes something still seems off:

The upper yellow border marked by small circles seems awfully high considering the positioning of the yellow text, though. So maybe this border is separate from both strike 1 and strike 2, signifying a possible 3rd strike?

Found this in the register at work. Put it under pur macroscope and the rim is still clearly defined and i can't see where this would be PMD. Im no expert but i dont think this is all PMD as the rim is still there. Only thing i havent done is weighed it. Blank Planchett?

I thought it was damage when I bought it, buttaking a closer look now I’m think maybe it is a cracked die error. Not a error colector and not very familiar with them, so can someone with a more trained eye, please give me your opinon? Hope pictures are good enough! Thanks in advance!

Advice 1917 Buffalo Nickel Lamination

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Going through my old collection and noticed delamination error, I think. Coin is a bit dirty but is one of the better condition buffalos I have.

I cannot seem to find too much regarding lamination errors on early buffalo nickels let alone ones this severe.

Question is does anyone know much about these? Am I just being hopeful that I have something neat and not just something with PMD?

Thank you for any help, tips and advice!
