I'm Impressed! What Can You Guys Tell Me About The Rest?

The nickel is completely flat

Hi Mickey - I see toning on the nickel but otherwise it looks normal to me. Coop is one of our experts so we'll leave it to his assessment. The quarter looks squeezed in a vise. No premium. The IHC looks to have some environmental damage/staining but nice details. Small premium but finer specimens can be had for a few dollars. The offcenter coins usually sell between $2-6 at my LCS when they come up for bids. I think that both would fit in that range.

Not sure if it is the same today.

In the 1980's I was stationed in Northern Virginia and
spent a lot of time in local coin shops.

There was a guy that worked for either Wells Fargo or
Loomis armor car service. I can remember him saying
that they would get the coins from the mint in large
bags. They would dump those coins into rolling machines
to roll for banks.

Every few months he would come in with error coins, mostly
off center strikes.

Now, it seems like I have read the mint takes steps to stop
the error coins from getting out.

Maybe the experts that know more about mint operations will
have more information.

Like the off centers too. Was wondering if the nickel would be classified as uniface as the reverse side showing no details. Seems it might have met against another planchet present in the coining chamber? Thanks, Doug.

Is the Indian Head cent a PMD scratch or a pre-strike lamination of the right side? The whole right side appears to be of a different texture than the left.

In 2001 or 2002 they also added additional riddlers to sort out misstruck pieces and clips so after that point many fewer are seen. Also around that time they switched from vertically string presses to horizonal strike Schuller presses. On a vertical striking press if a coin is not properly seated in the collar it still lays on top of the collar and adn can create an off-center strike. But in a horiontally striking press if the planchet isn't in the collar it falls out of the press. the only way to create an off-center is if the dies come together while the planchet happens to be falling past.

That second nickel looks something like a dime I posted

On your nickel that has a lot of copper showing I have a dime similar and I was told if it still retains the mint luster it could be caused by the annealing process.
