OK, I thought this would be fun for a change. A picture thread of mint errors. Share them if you have them! Here are a handful of mine. At least the ones I felt like photographing.
Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

XpipedreamR: I think I used to own that O/C wheat cent. Is there just the hint of a '6' showing at the rim?

Although it is nice it's technically not a mint error - it's a die variety.
