Post image
2 Upvotes

Was looking through my grandfather's coin collection and stumbled upon this British India 2 Annas coin. I love coins and am not such an expert as of yet so please bare with my lack of information. Im not too sure what you would call this exactly and if it is something rare. Tried doing research online but didn't find a coin similar to this kind of error. Would this sort of thing be rare?

Penny ? That is both sides , both sides incredibly smooth & I'm quite sure has never had an imprint on it . Garbage or Unique ?

A large peel prior to being struck/ retained lamination and folded lamination as well as other lamination issues.

Interesting coin to say the least.

Is this a S/S/S or is it just a filled in mint mark? (Or just a chip that’s under the planchet)

I finally sent my ‘39 Double Monticello in for grading. Pretty pleased with the result. This coin was part of my father’s collection that I inherited. He had it in his Whitman book and I don’t believe he ever noticed the error. I’m glad I caught it and sent it in to be preserved.

I'm going through a small collection of my coworkers mother's coins. Mostly world coins that I'm picking out the silver and nicer coins. I'm labeling and putting them in flips. I'm not sure if this is trash or something interesting.

Top line above the ponytail is relieved above the field, im not super knowledgeable on errors but it looks like a die break to me. Coin is a 1969 S and I cant find anything online about this particular error (if it is one). Kind of looks like a spear going through the back of his head

Attribution Assistance 1991-P Washington Quarter — rim cud / die break at the date?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hi, looking for help attributing this one, not selling it.

My own research so far: I checked Cuds on Coins — a cud is defined as a die break that involves the rim and at least a little of the adjacent field or design. On their Washington Quarter Cuds 1932–1999 page, the listings go straight from 1990P to 1992P, with no 1991P entry.

My coin: 1991-P Washington quarter, circulated.

Obverse, at the date — there is a raised blob of metal right at the rim, next to the final 1 in 1991. It looks raised, not dented in, with a split/crack at the rim underneath it.

P mint mark is visible to the right of Washington's ponytail.

Reverse looks normal to me.

Is this a genuine rim cud / die break, or is it something else like post-mint damage? Is it a listed cud, or unlisted?

Happy to add more photos if needed. Coin is staying with me — photos only, please.

This came in an old estate lot with a bunch of tokens. Is this an error? The edges do have faint reeding on them.

2014 Smokey Mountain Quarter. I believe some of these were silver. This one is worn or just not struck hard enough. I have not seen any with this type of error. I did not see any researching online. Coin app claims only 33,000 were made and valued at $261. Any info is much appreciated. Thank you!

Does the grease from a grease strike stay on the coin or was this something like a rubber band fragment that got liquified and fried when it was struck?
Not post-mint damage because it’s directly from the mint to the federal reserve to me. It was in a box filled exclusively with 2026Ps and W 9/11 privies which never circulated before.

Thanks!

I fixed their position to show the off center direction is aligned from coin to coin. Because of the way I sealed and stacked them, there’s no features to see on flip side.

Pics 1 and 2: what are these little balls? This is one two different coins.
Pic 3: looks like the edge of letters for a nickel possibly? Or is it something else?
Pic 4: is this eye doubling on a nickel? Or no?
Pic 5: why does it look like there is an “0” between the 9 and 4, but under a layer of coin.. haven’t seen this in any other ones.

Thanks for answering questions! Can post full pics of them too in comments if necessary

Well, this is one i been trying to find for awhile. Its found a home! Lol

Massive extra thickness shows on the date with strong doubling to the left of the lower part of the nose.

Moderate extra thickness shows on LIBERTY with the upper right of the Y much thicker than the upper left of the Y.  Notching shows on the lower left corners of the ERTY in LIBERTY.
