NGC 1969-D Lincoln cent struck 25% off-center on a Costa Rica 5 centimos planchet. The coin is much smaller than a normal cent, and weighs 1.1 grams--nearly 1/3 the weight of a normal cent! It is also off-center, and with a uniface reverse...

NGC 1962 Lincoln cent struck 10% off-center and 12% straight clip. A scarce date for major errors like this. MS63 Red/Brown

NGC 1953 wheat cent off-metal struck on a silver 10c planchet. The coin is the design of a cent, but is struck on the smaller planchet of a silver dime. The coin is missing some of the outer design elements, and is smaller than a cent at 2.5 grams.&n…

NGC 1943 steel cent die adjustment strike. The coin is weakly struck, with much of the design missing on the obverse and reverse.  The error occurred when the coin was struck with insufficient pressure. This can occur when a press is starting up…

PCGS 1999-P Susan B. Anthony dollar triple-struck with the 2nd and 3rd strikes 20% off-center. Dramatic in appearance, and scarcer than double-strikes. The 2nd strike shows 2 dates, and also is die struck on both sides, adding to the coin's...

PCGS 1977 Eisenhower dollar struck on a half dollar planchet. The coin is struck on the much smaller Kennedy 50c planchet, and is the weight and metal of a 50c. Much of the outer lettering is missing, although fortunately, the date is visible enough …

PCGS 2007-D Lincoln cent struck 15% off-center. Scarcer date for off-centers. MS62 Red

Scarcer date for off-center wheat cents.

NGC 1876 1 mark struck through a 20 pfennig planchet on its obverse. The planchet strike thru measures 16 mm. The error occurred when a 20 pfennig planchet was laying on top of this coin when it was struck, creating an indent. The 20 pfennig fell awa…

PCGS 2007-D Washington dollar with the reverse clad layer missing before strike. The coin is coppery colored on the reverse due to the outer manganese layer separated almost entirely, before strike.   A small sliver of the manganese remains arou…

PCGS 1971-X Kennedy half major off-center, struck 70% off-center at 10 o'clock.   A Major off-center Kennedy half, and scarce.    MS64

PCGS 1981-P Washington quarter double-denomination, struck over a 1981 Jefferson nickel. The coin has the designs of a quarter and a nickel on it, with traces of the nickel design visible (especially on the quarter's obverse near the rim.)   Qua…

NGC (1941-1945) Jefferson silver war nickel type-2 planchet, with laminations on the planchet. Silver war nickels are very common with laminations, which therefore makes laminations on an unstruck planchet understandable.  Silver war nickel...

PCGS 1943-S walking liberty half broadstruck. The coin expanded in size beyond its normal diameter, and shows a decent sized area of unstruck planchet in the 6 o'clock areas.  Broadstruck walking half dollars are very scarce.  XF45
