1955 Lincoln Wheat Cent with a clipped planchet.
1960-D Lincoln Memorial Cent Re-punched Mint Mark, commonly called an RPM. Lincoln Cents
1879-P "Near Date" Susan B. Anthony Dollar (left) with a normal rim dollar (right). You tell the "Near Date" by the thick rim that causes the date to be nearer to the rim. It is actually a variety, not an error. Susan B. Anthony Dollars
2005-D Minnesota Statehood Quarter Extra Tree Error. The error has been reported on the 2000-P and as many as 11 variations might exist. Quarters
1984 Lincoln Memorial Cent with a Die Clash. This occurs when an obverse die strikes the reverse die (without a coin between them), and some of the design of the opposite die is struck on both dies. Then a planchet is struck showing design elements on each side of both dies. Lincoln Cents
1794 Flowing Hair Half Dime with die cracks. Modern coins with die cracks don't bring extra value, unless it affects the design dramatically. However, in older type coins it can signal a possible variety and bring a premium. Half Dimes

1999 Lincoln Cent Broadstrike mint error. This example is almost perfectly centered, but there are some that are off-center. However, and Broadstrike coin that's more than 10% off-center is considered an Off-Center struck coin. Lincoln Cents
Roosevelt Dime Off-Center Strike (no date). This coin is struck around 50% off-center with most of the date showing. The most sought after are coins showing full date, and coins can be off-center anywhere from 1% and up. Roosevelt Dimes
All of the above are true double die mint errors, and not to be confused the "Poor Man's" double dies which are not true double dies, but machine doubling, abraded dies or from worn dies. It's also not a double struck coin either. A true double die happens after the engraving lathe accidentally carves a double image on the master hub that is transferred to the die. If the second image appear flat or shelf-like then it's not a double die.
2007-P Roosevelt Dime with Cud (extra metal) under the neck. Also, there's some extra metal on the lower part of the torch, on the reverse. I found this coin in my pocket change March 27, 2008. Roosevelt Dimes
2005 Jefferson/Buffalo Nickel with a 'speared' bison. You can see the die crack through the middle of the Bison, and looks like a long and thin scratch. Jefferson Nickels

"Cheerios" Sacagawea Dollar Found Without Enhanced Tail Feathers Design
Jaime Hernandez - May 27, 2008
Regular Reverse of 2000 Sacagawea Dollar As part of an effort in 1999 to promote the new Sacagawea dollars, General Mills scattered 5,500 specially packaged, 2000-dated Sacagawea dollars among 10 million boxes of Cheerios cereal. Five years later, it was discovered that the so-called "Cheerios" dollars were actually from a different reverse die type. Some experts consider these pattern coins; others have called them "Reverse of 1999." Read story

Leonard Raymond and Stan Lacks of Plymouth Mass., found an interesting difference of the scissortailed flycatcher on the reverse of the 2008 Oklahoma State Quarter. It appears to be an 'auxiliary wing' under the normal right wing of the bird. Coin World reports it as a sizable die break. CoinWorld.com
