Picked up 2 errors at the B&M today.

He picked up the cent from behind the counter and flung it at me (it was in a 2X2) and asked me "what do you think this is? He found it in a bunch of bulk wheaties he bought. The quarter was sitting in his showcase of NEWPS from FUN and I snagged it also just because it's BU and neat and has possibly 2 clips to it. The obvious one and a tiny one at 10-11:00 on the obv, better seen on the reverse at 7-8:00.

What would you value these in a retail setting?

The cent looks a little like a reverse counterbrockage. It's tough to tell from the image. Not sure about it's value if a counterbrockage.

cent struck with capped die?

Yes, with late stage brockage.

Yep, a brockage, not a counterbrockage. Rotate the coin and you can see the the bit of UNUM visible is reversed.

I agree that the quarter has two clips.

I'll take your word for it! I can't see the UNUM ... reversed or not.

Me too. Look for the clad layer inversion on the edge. That will be definitive.

My thoughts on the Cent is it's a brockage. I see a couple reversed letters of UNUM at 6:00 in the top pic. The pics are taken with coin alignment. There is some ghosting of Lincoln's portrait which leads me to believe that this is a late stage capped die.
