First up an apology; the photos arent great.

Decided on a mini noodle today and this turned up :






Now from the limited error knowledge I have this is a tilted partial collar error. Is this correct?

After I found this one it made me have another look at a coin I found about 6 months ago. I thought it was just a simple miss-strike but now think it may be a broad-strike. It has only very light reeding in some places but is mainly smooth edged. What do you guys think?

Nice finds!
I might have to go back to the 5c coins now.
The only misstrike I have found is a 5c.
Edit just to be clear: I am not saying these photos are "misstrikes", just that the only similar (as in planchet was not properly in the collar) thing I have is also in a 5c.

So the second one is a broadstrike not a miss strike?

Yes I believe it is a broadstrike,although if it does have a little bit of reeding I suppose it could techinically also be a partial collar,may have to get clarification from others on that.
