Are these Type Bs? plus another high hope to bust.

First, was to go through around 50 rolls to pull the 1956-1964. That gets um down to 10 rolls. Now to look for Type Bs.
Five possible; at least I can see a seperation between the STATES E and S. What's the verdict?

The Jefferson was in a mint roll I had saved and finally opened to look for errors. When the roll was first opened this one stood out. The high hope went poof; it looks like it got jammed in some type machine between stamping and put into a roll. The last one beats the H out of me. The blank copper is the same size as a quarter. It was in my late mother-in-laws purse along with a worn $1 Hawaii. Wonder how long she carried that around.

    Yes!
  • I was surprised to read about something here about EZ something or another, to clean coins. A couple could look better, but I thought using any cleaner was taboo.
    Someone said 1962s were harder to find, which these are.

    Yes

    There is a second pickup point for type B showing in your pictures. The M of UNUM is centered under the IB of PLURIBUS instead of being slightly to the left, where it is on all non-B's from 1932 thru at least 1985.

    I have a 1985 and a 1996 Quarter in front of me. In 1985 the M is still to the left of IB. In 1996 the M is to the right of IB. I find that an interesting fact I never noticed before. But I never looked before, either.

    All the "corters" are of the Type B reverse.

    The Jefferson is simply Post Mint Damage (PMD) from the coin crashing into something.

    The blank copper, while unusual, is not that uncommon IMHO.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    The second and third pics are 1956's, aren't they??image
  • Just rechecked them, all 1962s .
    I have no idea what the blank copper may be. I'm thinking it could have nothing to do with coins; no way to really find out, as far as I know.
