sacagawea error

I found two a sacagawea errors in rolls that I opened. Both rolls were circulated with susan b anthony dollars in the rolls. I am wondering what kind of error they are. One is silver in color and it looks like it was struck on a susan b anthony coin but it is really dirty. And the other one has the normal gold on one side and a copper color on the other side. At first I thout that it was just missing the clad layer but it is also about 1/4 smaller than a regular sacagawea dollar and when it is tapped on something it makes a different sound than a normal sacagawea dollar. Any thoughts would be a great help. Thanks Mike.

Ya gotta do the picture dance.....we can't tell if we can't see them.
Hell, I don't need to exercise.....I get enough just pushing my luck.
Good luck.
Coin number one may just be "used". Sacs turn a nasty and ugly color after a while.
If memory serves the clad layers on the Sacs are much thicker proportionally than the other clads.
I know for a fact that the Sac dollars tone to an ugly copper color when left out in the open. My daughter left one in her sand box for about a month. Looked like a large cent when it was rescued from the sand.
Looking for PCGS AU58 Washington's, 32-63.

Yup. I just found a 2000-D with my detector. It was almost an inch deep, below the grass. Brown, just like a clad quarter would be, but I knew right away it was something different, because of the plain edge. Had it not been too shallow for a large cent, my heart might've skipped a beat.
