I must be missing out on something. What makes these coins interesting to collect?

jello - there was something (e.g. grease) that was on the die when this coin was struck. That is why the coin was not struck perfectly. Some people find them interesting because it shouldn't happen.

I see... so these are results of poor quality control, rather than an "error" coin.
