A few fun errors

Just bought these in a collection I purchased and figured I would share. The collection was alot of normal raw stuff and these were laying in the last box. Just some fun little errors for inventory.

    Very nice! 👍 Every collector/collection needs a few legitimate mint errors. Yours are nice because we can see them with the naked eye and we don't need a scanning electron microscope.

    I agree , it seems most collections I buy have a few. Alot of times though, they are off center lincolns or blank planchets, so these were a nice surprise when I pulled them out.

    Excellent - I love that first Lincoln, two strikes with two full dates is quite unusual.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
