1994 misaligned,die cracked, double die. I think unless there's more I missed.

Strictly spending money.

I dont see it either😐

I look at all my pocket change as well, and cannot remember a significant discovery in a decade.

You are not learning anything and wasting time with the process you are employing.

There is an old saying... "Buy the book before the coin."

Buy the latest two editions of the Cherry Pickers Guide to Rare Die Varieties by Bill Fivaz.

Then you are free to search the unlimited amount of ebay listings across a broad spectrum of series and years.

Comes with pictures and notes about each coin. You can also use PCGS images for better resolution.

That way you are looking for specific pick up points and not wasting time with pocket change.

Today you pick a coin with an easy pick up point and say... "today is the day"

Then you search thousands of Buffalo Nickels looking for 3 legged Bison for example.

Then you remember the pick up point for next time and when you visit a show or a flea market.

Tommorrow? Walking Liberty Half Dollar engraved initials...

I have found multiple coins valued from $100 to $2000 using the guides and this approach.

The six cents you have recently pictured:
2009 - A very heavily hoarded date. Huge numbers available in mint state.
1951- Damaged, probably by being run over in a parking lot.
1934- Unusual date to turn up in change these days but this one has unattractive surfaces. Not a rare or scarce date.
Lincoln Memorial reverse- Looks to have a scratch. These are very common in high grade as many were hoarded and are now being dumped back into circulation.
1971-S- High circulated grade and OK for a coin folder set.
1972- Very common date and frequently encountered in high circulated grades.

Getting nasty and vindictive.

Sounding a lot like a newbie who was banned a few weeks back....

Lol I do get like that when I can hide behind a username and i know everyone else is doing the same. In real life I'm actually a pretty easy going guy and half of what i say when I'm just another name in cyberspace I would never say to someone in person without then knowing I was just joking around.

Try this for the doubling

Www.doubleddie.com - click on the tab marked worthless doubling

I did not know that could happen like that I read the whole thing and it does make sense when you think about different alloys not mixing correctly in a massed produced setting.

Lol looks like someone had a thumbtack and was board now that I look harder at the penny. But I do have a real question about the number of "die cracks" are they only worth something if it's a known variety or is it just the size of the line that matters. I honestly "think" I find these all the time is it like the doubling and it's just something that happens after they leave the mint over time or am I finding mint errors?

I'm still throwing in the ocean though.

Scratches go INTO the coin. A die crack is raised from the coin. Don't confuse damage with die cracks.

It's hard to get it in the right light to see the obverse die crack but it starts from the bald spot on top of his head and runs around the back of the ear and under the jawline. Has anyone seen one like this?

So your saying this has a die crack? Behind the ear and jawline?

If so, then we have a flood of “die cracks”.

All above from CoinFacts.

It’s the design not a die crack.

Look if you like these cents then keep them. Some of them are kinda cool, but people will not, as a rule, pay money for the majority of minor errors and varieties unless they are extremely high grade.

Lincoln cents are riddled with minor die breaks, they are common beyond belief and 99% bring no premium at all.

Even many of the coins listed in the Cherry Pickers Guide can be very difficult to sell if not certified in MS 64 or higher.

The whole trick to role searching is to find what you like, not making money. New or unknown double dies or other varieties are virtually worthless until one of the big well known guys authenticate and market them.

"UNTIL ONE OF THE BIG WELL KNOWN GUYS AUTHENTICATE AND MARKET THEM"

Absolutely right on the money! Only the "right" people make money on this kind of "stuff". Try asking one of these "right" people what their buy price, rather than their sell price is and see what happens.

Sounds familiar.
