2005-D: that is commonly called a grease filled die. It is considered an error type, but worthy of sending in is a question for someone else
that is a very close up photo of the wheat cent. the first pic has me wondering if some metal was just stuck in between the letters. on the other hand, if I only saw the second I'd have said struck with a chipped die. either way it's is a not anything special.
it is common, and in that location it is common enough to be called "L I B I E R T Y" and they do get sold on ebay (but they are nothing worthy of paying extra money for)
The 1956 cent is what's known as a "BIE" LIBERTY cent due to a die chip between the B and E of LIBERTY. Back in the early to mid sixties these were all the rage but today they are pretty much ignored and aren't worth more than a couple of bucks if that.

For the sake of discussion, maybe you could work through the math?
Current value unslabbed: $X
Cost of slabbing, including postage both ways: $Y
Value when slabbed: $Z

no... I (me) stealing photos.
I got those cent photos from another site.
I flagrantly ripped off someone else's photo to show.
Ok that's what I was wondering it is a neat error
yeah. that is a grease filled die.
just need to get some error collector in here Re: value and collectibility.
Oh ok I have to use my computer for the close ups and phone for regular pictures thank you for all your advise and help
I have a free voucher so is it worth sending the 2005 grease filled
save the voucher just in case.

Ty I sold the pic of my profile on ebay Jefferson cud for 64.00
Was pretty shocked Lol
good deal.
Probably not worth sending into PCGS.
ATS is borderline.
Nice die fill error, Not sure slabbing would add value after deducting the cost of slabbing.
I did send this one to PCGS and got the grade today of MS63 RD
The reason I did it IS because of the date of 2020 and It is a rare Shield Cent major error.
Nice
As a grease strike, it's relatively low value. Probably $20 or so retail.
