I’ve seen that Civil War token with the shattered die and die clashes – very neat
The Lincoln cent photo is very blurry, but does not look genuine from what I can see – the reverse seems to be double struck, but there’s a partial reverse on the obv. too but doesn’t match the other side

The Broas Bros token with shattered dies is actually kinda common, though it boggles my mind how they were able to strike so many planchets with dies in such poor condition.

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
