Hey everyone I shipped over here from youtube because I feel a genuine sorta vibe through coinhelpu.Anyways I have been a collecter of whatever catches my eye since I could grab stuff off of shelves. I only recently started getting serious when I started thinking about leaving something to my kid when I croak. Anyways I have some coins you guys might get a kick out of later but I will just let my introduction wear off first and then I will start the freakshow as soon as I get some better lighting.


See ya
Kosmo

:confused:
Are there questions that you have about these coins...? In each of their images??
Also, it really helps if you circle or point out the area in your image that you are asking about.

And, if you could, make "NEW POSTS" (a new thread) for each coin individually,
including a complete obverse and reverse image.

Yeah, should be one post per coin so it's not confusing. What I am seeing so far it strike doubling and some circulation marks and such. Here's my video on doubled dies and it will help you learn what they look like and compare to your coins.

Your post #6, 1rst & 2nd images appear to show a lamination peel through the date (1942) from an improper alloy mix.

Sometimes the metals didn't mix properly on all copper cents and small or large pieces can peel off the surface. Yours is interesting but the surfacee residue is distracting.
