Can someone tell me the errors on this coin, please? I see an error in the date and in the word liberty an on the O in the reverse. Thank you for your help.

From the pictures provided, I see either a die chip or PMD on LIBERTY (better pictures might help), Die Deterioration on the date, and we will need a closeup of the O on the reverse to determine what's happening. Happy hunting!

I am thinking that it's the start of a small Die Chip. Although I can't tell for sure though.

with CoinHunter27. I see a die chip below the E in LIBERTY and Die Deterioration Doubling ( DDD) on the date. The reverse image is not good enough to say accurately what is going on.

Fun news: this die chip on LIBERTY has been classified as a BIE (credited to fellow CCF member @lawest). Look at the LDB4-1955-001 4SBL+ on this page:

I think I even see the same die crack on Lincoln's shoulder/arm in your pics.

Yes, die chip on Liberty and a Poor Mans Doubled Die . Both are common errors on 1955-P Wheaties .
