Thoughts on this odd 1959 D penny?

I did try to look this up myself and can’t find any like it to compare to. The word “Liberty” is barely there and I see a second backwards D on Lincoln’s chest, which is why I think it’s a striking error from the mint rather than damage done after the fact?

I inherited a bunch of random coins and this is the most interesting one.

Help identifying error? Silver planchet?

Reposting with better pictures. 1946 nickle that I suspect might be on a silver planchet? Very new to collecting got this coin in a 4 pack of error coins for $1 which included a silver quarter. On the “In” on the face there’s metal delaminating? Same with the back of his neck. On reverse lots of cracks and zebra stripe? Thanks for anyone more educated thoughts. I live in Alaska and do not have a local coin shop.

Uncirculated and still in packaging

I inherited this 1971 S, uncirculated silver dollar many years ago. It's still in its original packaging along with the envelope. As I was inspecting it closer, I noticed this across the "1". The plastic sleeve doesn't seem to be damaged at all. Normally, I would chalk it up to PMD.

Is this a chipped die or greased die? If so, would it be worth grading? No plans to sell.

I inherited these pennies from my grandfather. I see the L error on the side of some of the coins. I wanted your take on them. I feel like I'm looking at more errors but cannot identify them.

In God We ______ 1955 penny error

Getting around to the penny books this morning if you're following my adventures through the family coin collection. I'm loving opening these books to find the little extra sprinkles of coin not asked for by the folders.

I can not find this as a listed error - I admit I only poked at 3 websites. Did my Memaw find something here?

Broad strike error?

Okay so I've done a little bit of research and it seems like I might have what is called a broad strike error. I found the top penny in a nickel roll earlier. The penny weighs 2.4g, it's slightly smaller than the diameter of a nickel but bigger than a penny as you can see, and there are no ridges on the edge, it's smooth. What do you guys think?

1982 P large date/bronze Lincoln cent

Got this 1982 P large date/bronze Lincoln cent with a double struck off center, showing a date in the 2nd strike, awhile back. And wondering if the market is hot for these errors to be selling right now or hold onto it longer? Thanks

Possible dime error, or just a one sided dryer coin?

I found this coin in a coinstar reject tray. I don’t think it’s a dryer coin, because wouldn’t the other side have some damage also? Is this some type of die error or did someone damage it in some way? Thanks in advance for any help and guidance.

Worthy or Worthless?

I came across this while doing laundry. I was just curious if y'all thought this was an actual error or man-made.

2019 Lowell w possible error

Posted this coin at an earlier date and dont think I posted that great of photos. So I re took them. I have a 2019 Lowell w mint quarter I found in 2019 in a fresh roll of quarters it has extra metal along the edge and what looks like miss struck words. Just looking for some insight on if its worth getting graded.

if an copy coin is missing the copy, does it become worth anything

so my grandpa was showing me some old coins he had and there was this big coin that was covered in like a gold cover, and they all have copy on them to show they aren’t legitimate, but one of them is missing the copy. i’ve scoured the surface with a microscope and there isn’t even a mark or blemish on the coin. obviously it’s not authentic from however long ago it came from but as an error coin i was wondering what it would be categorized as. i can answer any questions and im sorry im not at my grandparents house so i dont have a picture of the coin

Type of Error?

Found this today. Is this an error or is it likely PMD regarding the surface texture.
